16 courses with the subject CYBR, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
In this course, students will learn the fundamentals of cybersecurity. Topics to be covered include authentication, cryptography, steganography, methods of digital eavesdropping, wireless security, access control, exploits, denial of service attacks, intrusion detection and prevention, social engineering, and security policies. Typically offered:
Digital data uses various network infrastructure and processes to travel from sender to receiver. This course introduces networking terms, technology & devices that make this digital communication possible, laying the foundation for understanding networks and how they are related to cybersecurity. Networking process and protocols will be discussed as well as various network hardware and network design. Examples of topics that may be discussed are; TCP/IP & OSI models, connection types, types of addressing, IPv4 subnetting, router and switch basics, types of networks and current trends in networks. Students who have received credit for CSCI 300 Networking may not receive credit for CYBR 110. Typically offered:
This course builds on the student’s introductory knowledge of cybersecurity and computer networking with identifying vulnerabilities & threats and implementation of appropriate security solutions within various environments. Students will learn about security planning, and where to apply appropriate security controls in the plan to maintain confidentiality, integrity and the availability of data and systems. Curriculum is designed to support student preparation for CompTIA Security+ certification. Attributes: NLIB
This course builds a foundation in understanding the way networks operate. Topics discusses include; various network components and connections, services, network structure, and various protocols. Instruction and hands-on experience are provided in the proper care, safety, and maintenance of equipment, cabling, and tools. Students build local area networks (LANs), configure basic settings on routers and switches, and implement internet protocol (IP & IPv6) addressing schemes. Particular attention is given to decision making and problem-solving techniques implement network solutions, solve networking problems an Students who have received credit for CYBR 304 Network and Cloud Security may not receive credit for CYBR-222.

Advanced Cybersecurity Component - 22 credits
This course provides an introduction to various scripting languages in both the Windows and Unix environments. The emphasis in this course is on writing various shell scripts with a practical focus. Such scripts are often used in not only system maintenance, but also to parse logs, audits, and various other security artifacts. Shells covered include Windows batch files, and various Unix shell scripting languages, such as csh, tcsh, and zsh. Additional Unix tools such as grep, sed, and awk are also covered as appropriate. Python is also introduced as a general-purpose programming language. Typically offered:
This course provides a practical coverage of network and cloud security. This is an advanced networking course with an emphasis on security architecture and maintenance. There is an emphasis on the practical usage of modern hardware and software to assist in securing a network. Topics include threat assessment and mitigation (including viruses, worms, and trojan horses), secure networks, access control, firewall configuration and deployment, network-wide security, and cryptography. In addition, cloud computing security is emphasized, as it has become a standard in the current IT industry, but security issues ar Typically offered:
This course provides a practical coverage of cloud security. In addition to basic knowledge of cloud architecture, risks and threats associated with cloud computing are covered. This course has a significant laboratory component. This course covers elements of the industry certification Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK). Students who have received credit for CYBR 304 Network and Cloud Security may not receive credit for CYBR-305. Attributes: NLIB
Students will apply security framework principles to maintain integrity, confidentiality and availability of data. Students will learn to detect and analyze alerts in a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system, and report on cybersecurity incidents in a Security Operations Center (SOC) as a Tier 1/Tier 2 security analyst. Students will learn how to view logs in various file systems and mitigate threats in the network infrastructure and services through such technologies as firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPN), and Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS). Curriculum is designed t Attributes: NLIB
An important aspect of cybersecurity involves malicious software (malware). Everything from harmless but annoying adware to software written for cyberwarfare between nations is classified as malware. It is important to not only be able to detect malware, but to also know exactly what type of threat it presents and how to neutralize it. Real world examples of malware are analyzed using modern analysis tools and techniques. This course has an extensive laboratory component. Typically offered:
Digital forensics describes the techniques and tools used to gather evidence with respect to potential policy violations (this typically includes actual prosecutable crimes, even if a policy does not address this). The course covers the tools and techniques used to gather said evidence from a variety of sources, including files, operating system logs, cell phones, instant messaging, and the like. In addition to the theory behind the techniques for data gathering, the course also covers the practical application of these tools. In addition to the technical and theoretical content of the class, legal issues are d Students who have received credit for CYBR-401 Dgtl Forensics & Ethcl Hacking may not receive credit for CYBR-403.

This course provides the opportunity for investigation of a special topic or project of interest to a student and a supervising cybersecurity faculty member. Students must contact the faculty member and request permission to register. Independent study may involve a literature search, writing a research proposal, and/or a project. Students must complete the Independent Study/Tutorial Authorization form and submit it to the Registrar’s office. Attributes: NLIB
Students work with a faculty advisor to design and execute a research plan addressing an issue in cybersecurity. The results of the project are presented in the form of a written research report and/or a format representative of the discipline. Students must contact the faculty member and request permission to register. Attributes: NLIB 2025-2026 Catalog » Academic Programs » Undergraduate » School of Arts and Sciences » Cybersecurity
