Description
The cybersecurity orientation of JAMK's Information and Communication Technology degree program offers students a deep understanding of the security of the digitalized world. The courses included in the orientation broadly cover the key areas of cyber security and equip students with the skills needed to respond to the challenges of information security. Students get solid basic information about information security in the course "Information security controls" and learn more about cyber security management in the course "Cyber security management". "Cyber threat intelligence and data analytics" provides an understanding of identifying and countering cyber threats through data analysis. Courses such as "Attacks and Defenses and Protection," "Hardening," and "Anomaly Management and Cybersecurity Centers" deepen students' skills to respond to and counter cyberattacks effectively. Courses related to web application security, such as "Web Application Security," "Reverse Modeling," and "Software Vulnerabilities and Exploitation," prepare students to protect web applications and identify software vulnerabilities. The orientation also includes hands-on exercises, such as the "CTF Challenge," which allows students to apply what they've learned in real scenarios. "Encryption techniques and systems" offers in-depth information about encryption techniques and their importance in information security. Finally, "Audit, Penetration Testing and Red Teaming" equips students to perform systematic audits and testing and participate in Red Teaming, where simulated attacks are used to identify system strengths and weaknesses. This orientation prepares students to become cybersecurity professionals by providing an in-depth understanding of modern information security methods and techniques. Whether it is combating cyber threats, managing information security or analyzing vulnerabilities, the cyber security orientation equips students to face the challenges of the digital world safely and effectively.
