During the program, students will gain essential leadership and management skills, providing opportunities for them to advance in their career.

As digital innovation continues to rapidly advance, it is becoming increasingly difficult for organizations to keep up with the changing nature of cybersecurity threats.
With a shortage of cybersecurity professionals across Canada, this program was designed and developed with leading financial services organizations to meet the need for individuals with the specialized skills to secure, protect and defend mobile and network infrastructures, preventing fraud, data breaches and other vulnerabilities.
As a graduate of this eight-month Cybersecurity and Threat Management program, students will be equipped with cutting-edge best practices and skills in communication, information security, project management, problem-solving and more. The industry capstone project and optional work term will give them hands-on experience and position them for a career in one of the world’s fastest-growing fields.
