About HND in Cyber Security

The Cybersecurity specialization covers the basic concepts behind building secure systems, from hardware to software to user and computer interfaces, while using cryptography to secure interactions. These concepts are illustrated with examples drawn from recent practice, and complemented with practical exercises that incorporate relevant tools and techniques. Successful participants will develop a security-oriented way of thinking, and a better understanding of how to think about opponents and how to build defense systems to protect data.
