为什么学习 Cybersecurity at Northwest

If you've ever considered studying 网络安全, now's the perfect time. According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, information security jobs will grow 35% in the next decade. 这是巨大的! You probably can guess why, though. With everything becoming digital, 网络安全 is critical.

通过定义, 网络安全 is the protection of infrastructure, 系统, 设备, 网络, information and applications from attacks, 损害, loss or unauthorized access. Any organization is susceptible to cyberattack, no matter the industry or size. Throughout this program, you'll gain a strong understanding of computer 系统, including hardware, 网络, operating 系统, information assurance and programming. You'll also learn how to analyze computing problems and identify solutions to ensure a secure and safe network for your company. Our program has been validated by the National CAE-CD (Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense).

You may be wondering what makes our program better than other schools. For starters, we believe in learning by doing. We have recently built a 网络安全 lab with modern servers, 电脑, and network 设备 where students can conduct many 网络安全 activities. 此外, projects and assignments are designed to give students a taste of what their future jobs could look like. 例如, you'll get into teams and apply legal and ethical principles to make smart judgments in a computing context. By the end of this program, you'll be an expert in security and will be able to help protect your future company from any risks or threats.
