Integrated M.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering

(Cyber Security) (5 Year)
The Integrated M.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering (Cyber Security ) programme is a 5 year
integrated course offered in VIT – Bhopal campus.

About Cyber Security

 In this age of quick information, Internet is the engine that is ushering global economic growth,

connectivity & relentless communication.

 The issues related to cyber security of any country, should not impede any of these factors.

 Instead it is important to create such initiatives and be well-equipped to face and take head-on those

cyber offences, that could cause espionage, infringement into copyrights, financial thefts, stealing

personal data etc, which can threaten security, financial issues and confidentiality of a person,

organization or even a nation.

 It is no exaggeration to say that the battles in the future will probably be fought in cyberspace instead

on land or sea, with the targets being critical infrastructure such as dams and power grids and even

healthcare.

 This has already been attempted in the past. Till date, more than 26,000 websites have been defaced

and 91 lakh infected systems have been detected in India. The year 2016 saw over 3 million debit cards

getting hacked in India.

 Worse, 80% of all cybercrimes go unreported!

 This makes it super important that India fortifies its critical infrastructure and evolves a mechanism

that can be practically implemented in case of any cyber breach.

And this is where the role of cyber warriors comes in.

Career Prospects

 3.5 million gobal shortage of Cyber Security professionals by 2021

 Hackers Attack Every 39 Seconds.

 The cyber security market in India is expected to grow from USD 1.97 billion in 2019 to USD 3.05 billion

by 2022

 India’s yearly cyber premium in range of INR80-100Cr. (USD11TO 14 Mn)

 India and the US have the largest cyber security talent pool.

 The IT Governance Analyst is responsible for providing IT governance, and will align IT investments

with enterprise business goals, as well as Bureau and Agency guidance.

 An ethical hacker, also referred to as a white hat hacker, is an information security expert who

systematically attempts to penetrate a computer system, network, application

 An expert witness who testifies or gives digital forensic related opinions at a dispute resolution trial or

hearing by virtue of his/her specialized knowledge.

 A Vulnerability Assessor (a.k.a. Vulnerability Assessment Analyst) scans applications and systems to

identify vulnerabilities

 A penetration tester is a type of network security consultant that tries to break into or find possible

exploits in different computer systems and software. You can think of them as a type of ethical hacker.

 CISO is the senior-level executive within an organization responsible for establishing and maintaining

processes to ensure information assets and technologies are adequately protected.
