Master of Science Program in Cybersecurity Risk Management (CYBERSECURITY)
Following advancement of information technology, it allows people to use technology to cause damages to each other or even to the public and private sectors. This leads to various countries including Thailand to pass law to control technology usage. In B.E. 2563, Thailand enforced the law on control of personal data usage. Thus, technology personnel need to understand this law to work in information technology safety and security in order to reduce risks of damages to information of an organization including risks of breaking the law.
The Master of Science Program in Cybersecurity Risk Management is an integration of fields in information security and technology risk management under the computer science program together with laws under the law program. This is to create a new and modern program that responds to the needs of the workforce market and rapidly changing global trend. Additionally, it integrates resources and personnel in education to work in multidisciplinary fields in order to create new knowledge.
This program is hoped to produce master’s degree graduates to have the 21st century skills by being capable and competent in information security, information risk management and laws. They will have inquiry skills to apply in the work involving cybersecurity, which are scarce in the current period of time.
