As daily life becomes more dependent on the internet, it's vital to protect our online security.
A Master of Cybersecurity from UTS will equip you with the capability to deploy technology strategies to prevent and recover from breaches and implement appropriate controls in any workplace. It is also a way to ‘futureproof’ your career.
A qualification from UTS will prepare you to intercept black hat hacking and create white hat solutions. You will learn how to prepare for and prevent security breaches by understanding the tools, technologies and psychology of cyber-criminals. You will also learn the necessary soft skills vital to communicate successfully to stakeholders in the professional environment, as a cybersecurity expert.
Why UTS?
UTS launched its first cybersecurity subject over 20 years ago, and has earned its reputation as a centre of excellence in research and education in this field ever since.
Our focus on cutting-edge technology and project work that is based on current real-world scenarios. This builds students’ expertise, giving them the skills to anticipate and prevent attacks.
UTS has close ties with industry, such as Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks, Nokia, Deloitte, NTT, the Australian Government, the finance and consulting sectors. UTS provides hands-on experience in labs using Juniper routers to learn firewall security. Our partnership with Juniper and Cisco Systems also means that students can prepare for JNCIS and other industry certifications as part of the course.
