Department Overview
Sethu Institute of Technology has introduced a Four-year B.E. CSE (Cyber Security) Programme from the academic year 2023. This program in CSE (Cyber Security) is intended to motivate and expertise the students into well-prepared Cyber Security professionals. Nowadays, most organizations and businesses rely on various types of information technology solutions, such as E-governance, E-banking, E-learning, and E-commerce in today’s networked world.
In an era of exponential digital expansion, the corporate landscape has transitioned into a digitally driven operational framework. The information saved and delivered is ultimately an invaluable company resource; all communications must be safe and under control.
As the demand for cyber security expertise reaches new heights, our program equips students with cutting-edge skills, spanning cryptography, API security, software fortification, network defense, identity and access management, cloud security, hardware safeguards, malware forensics, ransomware mitigation, vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and more. This program empowers graduates to become agile defenders against the relentless evolution of cyber threats.
Through this program, students acquire the necessary theoretical background, insights into general and technical aspects of Cyber Security, and a good understanding of analytical methods and management practices in the field of Cyber Security.
