Finally, it seeks to increase understanding on how the network infrastructure connects systems, and the impact on security.<br/><br/>**Key benefits of the degree**<br/>* Thriving community of ethical hackers with opportunities to participate in societies and live ‘hackathon’ type events<br/><br/><br/>* Previous graduates have gone on to become security consultants, security engineers, penetration testers and other sector-specific roles<br/><br/><br/>* Practical, hands-on approach to teaching, where you have the chance to demonstrate the theoretical aspects of the course through real-world examples<br/><br/><br/>* Dedicated specialised learning environment with the Ethical Hacking Lab<br/><br/><br/>See our website for further details.
