This department ensures the protection of digital assets, user privacy, and regulatory compliance. Students learn about network security, ethical hacking, encryption, DRM, and risk management. The focus is on safeguarding against cyber threats, implementing privacy-preserving technologies (e.g., federated learning), and adhering to global regulations like GDPR and CCPA. Additionally, students explore quantum-resistant cryptography and AI-driven cybersecurity solutions.
