The Master of Information Systems Security Management program curriculum was developed after consultation with other institutions offering security programs, a focus group of public and private sector security professionals, and a review of selected information systems security programs available in the world. Our program blends strong technical skills together with the management skills required to make information systems security effective in organizations. We use industry standards for security and privacy in every course where they are applicable.
