Cybersecurity (CyReg)

Computer security is crucial in almost any technology-driven industry which operates on computer systems, as enormous volumes of critical information is created, transmitted, and archived by computers worldwide every day – ensuring the security of this information is a challenge. Some of this information can be confidential ones belonging to governments, military, financial institutions, hospitals, and private businesses. Protecting confidential information is crucial indeed – it is undoubtedly a business requirement, and in many cases also an ethical and legal requirement.
Cybersecurity involves protecting information and information systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. With the ever-growing technology, today’s computer professionals need a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of security in computing.
