Overview

Franklin University ’s Cybersecurity degree program prepares you for a red-hot career in business, industry or government, protecting valuable data (and the bottom line) from security threats and hackers. So in-demand are cyber security professionals, that a 2015 report from Burning Glass reported that cybersecurity workers command 9 percent more in salary than other IT professionals.Perhaps that's why cybersecurity jobs are projected to grow by 18 percent, which is much faster than average between 2015 and 2025.*

Because it is a specialized field of industry, Franklin University offers a major in cybersecurity — rather than a component of another related program.

Courses in this curriculum include risk management and compliance; security architecture and controls; business continuity and operations; and network and application security. At Franklin, you’ll learn about the typical development mistakes that lead to application-level security issues, including CSRF, XSS, cryptography, configuration errors, authentication, and authorization, as well as how to defend against them.
