Specialisering:

Cybersecurity

Cybersikkerhed er i de senere år blevet et uundgåeligt krav til alle computersystemer i et moderne og digitaliseret samfund. På specialiseringen i cybersecurity lærer du at beskytte digitale systemer og data mod cyberkriminalitet ved at arbejde med sikkerheden i det samlede system. Det omfatter alt lige fra udviklingen af software til sikker ledelse og drift af de færdige systemer. 

Du kommer til at arbejde med specifikation af sikkerhedskrav, definition af sikkerhedsarkitekturer og validering af systemernes sikkerhedsegenskaber gennem analytiske eller empiriske metoder – for eksempel pentests (ethical hacking), der simulerer cyberangreb på digitale systemer.

Som civilingeniør med speciale i Cybersecurity får du en vigtig rolle i at bekæmpe cyberspionage og cyberkriminalitet. Det kan være som leder, arkitekt eller udvikler af sikkerhedskritiske it-systemer, netværksikkerheds-specialist, penetrationstester eller som undersøger af sikkerhedshændelser (forensics investigator).
