If students hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent, but don’t meet the entry requirements for a master’s, a Pre-Master’s can help them gain a place on a postgraduate degree.

Students can gain a broad education in the area of computer and Internet security, combining both technical and managerial aspects.

Building on a practical foundation comprising the understanding of operating systems, network protocols security and how to develop secured code, students will learn how to critically assess the security risks to IT organizations and how to evaluate the information security solution to mitigate them. In addition, students will gain the research skills necessary to investigate the continually changing issues in computer forensics and security in Cloud infrastructures.
