Cyber Security
Focus As communication systems become ever more complex, the skills needed to
Overview design, support, and keep those systems secure increase also. In the Cyber
Security program you will learn to configure routers and switches, maintain wide
area networks, and develop the processes necessary to provide the level of
security that modern work demands. You will receive the training and education
that will make you eligible for certification exams such as Cisco Certified
Network Associate (CCNA), Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP),
CompTIA, Security +, A+, Network+, and Security Certified Network
Professional (SCNP).
You will also have the opportunity to select optional courses in Linux and Sun
Solaris. Program completers will find employment opportunities statewide,
nationally, and internationally.
