Digital threats grow more sophisticated daily. Organisations face increasingly complex security challenges that require specialised expertise to address them effectively.

Companies across sectors need security professionals who can safeguard their business beyond basic IT infrastructure. Your advanced skills could help implement robust security architectures, conduct thorough vulnerability assessments, develop security policies, or lead incident response teams.

Working as an IT security engineer builds on your existing network knowledge while introducing specialised security responsibilities. Moving from infrastructure maintenance to proactive defence, you’ll apply your technical foundation to areas like threat detection, security control implementation, risk assessment, and cloud security.

This diploma builds upon your Network+ certification, equipping you with practical security skills that create new career opportunities. You’ll progress from cybersecurity fundamentals through cloud security principles and comprehensive risk management approaches.
