Amidst the swift expansion of the digital landscape and the pervasive influence of information technology across industrial, commercial, and social domains, the imperative arose to devise information technology programs that facilitate and safeguard this transition. These programs aim to construct and enhance secure applications, whether on websites or smartphones, while actively mitigating any threats posed to these applications and their users.

Cybersecurity stands to address market and societal demands by constructing secure applications and software tailored to community needs, ensuring users’ protection from potential infiltrations or risks to their information. Therefore, cyber security specialization is centered on furnishing students with contemporary scientific and practical skills essential for safeguarding cyberspace. This involves detecting potential vulnerabilities that could impact systems associated with information technology through hands-on practical experience in the cybersecurity field.

The comprehensive cybersecurity program encompasses cutting-edge courses to enhance students’ competencies and furnish them with profound knowledge in computer science, cyber security, and artificial intelligence. This program covers diverse modern subjects related to cyber security tracks, including Cybersecurity Governance track (Implementing and Auditing Information Security Management Systems, Risk Management and Information Systems Control), Cloud Computing Security track (Cloud Computing Security Testing, Cloud Computing Forensics Investigations), Blue Team track (Digital Forensics, Cyber Threat Hunting, Building Security Operation Centers), Red Team track (Penetration Testing, Source Code Security Testing, Offensive Security Operations).

To further enrich students’ learning experience, the department conducts specialized workshops and seminars focusing on information technology and cyber security. Additionally, a field training program is implemented, enabling students to engage with various institutions, comprehend market
