The Computer Science concentration in Computer Security is designed to supply graduates with the skills needed to prepare them for a wide range of opportunities. It gives students the ability to design and implement computing security and privacy processes, software and systems. Students use mathematical foundations, algorithmic principles, and computer science theory in the modeling and design of such systems. Computer security specialists are needed who can work within cyberspace to help secure, defend against, respond to, and in some instance, even initiate preemptive attacks.
