| Program Description |
The threats of cyber-attacks are increasingly apparent to
individuals and organizations across the globe. From hacking to phishing, scamming to grooming, and
botnets to cyber-terrorism, the variety and ingenuity of exploits appear to expand constantly.
The unprecedented incidence of crimes in the information and communication systems, made a compulsion
to fill up the vacuum created due to the dearth of experts. This could be overcome by creating experts in the
field of Cyber Security and Digital Forensics. Chances of getting victimized accidentally are more common
in the current era. To sensitize the people and to protect oneself from landing in such a scenario, there is a
need of specialized academic programs which will ultimately culminate in the expertise. This academia
imparts overall security measures required for the protection through various misadventures with the
electronic systems. It would also provide comprehensive solution for the preventive care and also for the
post traumatic measures to be taken. It also addresses system vulnerabilities and the preventative measures
that may counter cyber-attacks, including steps to repair systems weaknesses, prevent repeat occurrences,
and collecting and examining digital evidence using a variety of digital and mobile forensics tools and
technology.
