As reliance on technology grows, so do attacks from hackers and cybercriminals — constantly targeting businesses, governments, organizations and personal devices. Cyber security experts are in high demand: the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects 35% growth in information security analyst roles from 2021 to 2031, with a median annual salary of $102,600.
Michael University's Cyber Security Certificate Program prepares students to become cyber security practitioners, attain professional certifications, and help global organizations manage cyber security risk — covering risk assessment, cryptography, threat detection and incident response. Specializations include Cyber Security Management, Governance Risk and Compliance, Digital Forensics and Incident Response, and Threat Intelligence, and its credits are transferable into the Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence program.
