Technology is evolving and expanding at a very rapid pace. To this end, organizations are finding it difficult to maintain current business practices while updating technology initiatives and at the same time ensuring the data and systems are secure. Organizations that will not only survive but thrive are those which embrace the technological changes as they occur, and at the same time, implement measures to ensure data security.
The Cybersecurity (CYBR) curriculum is designed to meet this need. Students will be required to complete a core set of classes which prepares them in the following disciplines: networking, operating systems (e.g., Windows, Linux, etc.), security, and penetration testing. Upon completion of the coursework, students may also be prepared to sit for certifications such as: Linux+, Security+, Network+, and CeH.
Mastery of skills will prepare the students for employment in positions such as: network security analyst, IT security engineer, senior network security analyst, information security analyst, computer security technical specialist, or network and computer systems administrator.
Graduates of this program are able to translate complex analytic findings into clear, actionable recommendations for technical teams and non-technical stakeholders alike. They use statistical, analytical, and visualization tools to detect suspicious activity, identify anomalies, and recognize emerging patterns, and they can plan, implement, and monitor computer systems and devices to keep information assets protected. Throughout the program, students practice integrity, professional ethics, and responsible data stewardship, preparing them for professional positions in cybersecurity or for advanced study in the field.
100% of graduates are employed or enrolled in a bachelor’s degree program within six months of graduation (or both!)

Classes can be taken 2 days a week, leaving time for work, and many of them can also be taken online.
The program features an internship program with local firms to help you gain valuable experience to make you more employable.
You can take each Cyber course from wherever you have a computer and internet access.
Cybersecurity is a broad and in-demand field. Employment of information security analysts is projected to grow 32 percent from 2018 to 2028, much faster than the average for all occupations.
Zane State College has collaborated with Franklin University to offer a 3 + 1 Cybersecurity Pathway to help students take their education to the next level – saving time and money in completion of their Bachelors of Science – Cybersecurity degree.
