Cyber security is one of the fastest-changing areas of technology. As organisations become increasingly dependent on digital systems, networks, cloud services, and web applications, the ability to identify and manage security risks has become essential across industries.
This program introduces you to the fundamentals of ethical hacking and cybersecurity through a combination of theory, practical exercises, and security analysis.
You’ll learn how to identify potential threats and vulnerabilities in information systems, understand common network and application attacks, and use security tools to analyze weaknesses in controlled environments.
Throughout the program, you’ll work in a controlled and supervised educational environment where you can safely investigate vulnerable systems and applications.
You’ll use industry-relevant and field-tested security concepts and tools to identify, analyze, test and protect systems.
You’ll learn to think like an attacker but with the goal of becoming better at defending systems.
The practical teaching approach is designed to help you understand the complete security-testing process, from identifying a vulnerability to documenting your findings and recommending improvements.

I was pleased with the Cyber Security course. Professor Robert always amazed me by demonstrating the applications of cyber security which I had never explored before! The best part of the course were the company visits which bridged the gap between the practical and the theorical knowledge in real life scenarios. The Cyber Security course enhanced my knowledge to a great extent!
I really enjoyed studying, interacting with different technologies, programming languages, attacks, the pathway to becoming IT professional in cyber security. I loved the workshops, company visits. I highly recommend it, it's a whole new different world here.
I expected practical knowledge, my idea was to learn how to contribute and do something with my own hands. The quality of teaching was spectacular. Classes are small so the professor could help us in any moment. We got to visit 2 cities, and emerge ourselves to Croatian culture.
In the course you learn all the basics you need to know about cyber security and it gives you an idea of how hackers operate and what to do to prevent their attacks. I'm finally starting to understand how hackers hack. :)
