Cyber Security
In this course you will learn a range of technical skills including how to implement network security infrastructure and detect breaches in network security, as well as essential soft skills such as stakeholder management. With technology becoming deeply embedded into our personal and professional lives and the growing rise in cloud networks, wireless networks and data storage, the shortage of cyber security skills remains a serious concern for countries around the world.
The Certificate IV in Cyber Security has been developed to provide practical skills in areas such as:
- Identifying and reporting system vulnerabilities
- Identifying and reporting website and system threats
- Evaluating and reporting cyber security incidents
- Firewall installation, configuration and management
There is a serious shortage of cyber security skills in the workforce currently. Technology is deeply rooted in our professional and personal lives and the need for skilled workers is growing fast. A recent government report estimated that Australia would need another 11,000 Cyber Security specialists over the next decade.
