Description
Cybersecurity is becoming more and more relevant in all organisations, due to
ever growing digitalisation of activities in a globally hyper-connected world.
The diffusion of ICT dramatically increased the risks of a loss of confidentiality,
integrity and availability of data, with potential huge financial impacts (and
sometimes putting the survival of the organisations itself at risk). Also Covid 19
(and the consequent lockdown, which imposed a massive use of
home/smartworking) clearly showed that business organisations, public
administration and end users are often unaware of risks (or, anyway, unable to
manage them properly). Indeed, the number of cases of hacking and frauds during
the Covid 19 emergency increased dramatically. Hence, companies understood that
they need do strengthen this area by acquiring new competences and skills to
protect their business from cyber risks. The Master will prepare students to a
leadership role that strengthens organizations by understanding cybersecurity risks,
the possible impacts on business and possible countermeasures, with important
insights to governance, compliance, and regulatory issues. Through experiential
learning, case study analysis, and the illustration of leading security technologies
taught by expert faculty, students will develop key management skills to develop a
corporate cybersecurity plan.
