VFSTR has introduced a four-year B.Tech. CSE - Cyber Security (CS) from the academic year 2020-21. Cyber security is a taxonomy of technologies and services designed to protect networks, computers, programs and data from attacks.

Objectives
Technology has become an integral part of our lives with the increased usage of digital devices for communication, shopping, entertainment, banking etc. All these applications are vulnerable to various kinds of attacks and there is a need to protect digital assets by creating a strong cyber security eco system. In this Program, students pursue various courses related to security, forensic and tools such as Wireshark, Nessus vulnerability scanner, Snort to develop a strong and secured ecosystem. According to recent reports, there is a huge demand for developing security solutions as the nature of attacks are varying from time to time. Hence, it creates huge demand for cyber security professionals across the globe. As per the recent reports, one million job opportunities may be available for security solution developers in India by 2025.
