Cybersecurity Fundamentals and Attacker’s Methodology

This part-time 100% online program is instructor supported with real-time classes combined with independent study. Real-time classes are recorded in case you miss one. 

Outside of class, you can access online materials when it suits your schedule. Each week, you’ll have an opportunity to review readings and videos, apply your knowledge in exercises and case studies, contribute to a discussion board and connect with other students.

Expected Effort

Expect to spend approximately five to seven hours a week completing all learning activities, including attending the real-time online classes.

Technology Requirements

To take this course, you need access to:

• an email account
• a computer, laptop or tablet, using Windows or macOS
• the latest version of a web browser (or previous major version release)
• a reliable internet connection
• a video camera and microphone

Assessment

You are assessed on successfully completing weekly activities, including your contributions to discussion posts and applied case study projects (based on real-life scenarios). These activities are marked using a proficiency scale. Your instructor also provides you with informal feedback in the real-time classes.

While you are not assessed on your attendance of the real-time sessions, we encourage you to attend as they offer an opportunity to learn and interact with your instructor and other participants. All sessions are recorded in case you miss one.
