Computer Science as the Foundation of Security
Cybersecurity isn't just about passwords and firewalls—it rests on core computer science concepts. This beginner course builds from the ground up: how to think algorithmically, solve problems efficiently, then layer in the threats you actually face—hacking, cracking, phishing—and the defenses that work against them.
You'll study multi-factor authentication, encryption, firewalls, and secure deletion, then learn the unavoidable trade-off: stronger security often costs usability and convenience. Learn to evaluate which trade-offs matter in your own context, at home and at work.
