Whether investigating crime, protecting government or business from the threat of cyber attack or ensuring businesses and organisations operate computer systems in a secure and safe environment, few subjects are developing and evolving as quickly as the area of computer security and forensics. This Master Degree recognises this and provides you with a broad overview of computer security as well as technical knowledge in key areas. These include emerging technologies (ensuring you remain at the forefront of the subject's evolution) and subjects such as cryptography and cryptanalysis, advanced security countermeasures and digital forensics.

In addition to gaining hands-on, technical expertise, you will focus on research methodologies and examine aspects such as ethical hacking and legal issues. You will also be given the opportunity to enhance your 'soft' employable skills such as teamwork, communication and problem solving.
