Bachelor's Degree in Cyber Security in Malaysia
A bachelor's degree in cyber security teaches the foundations of computing and then the methods used to protect systems and investigate incidents. Some of the courses below are full degrees in security and others are computing degrees with a security specialisation, so read the course pages as well as the titles.
A bachelor's degree is the main undergraduate qualification. It is longer than a diploma and goes into the subject in more depth, and it is the usual entry point for a master's degree.
Entry normally needs a school-leaving qualification, a foundation course or a diploma, as the entry requirements on each course page say.
