Defend the systems the world depends on

In the UK today, cyber threats are intensifying – and professionals with the skills to defend systems are in critically short supply. With the cyber security sector generating over £13 billion in revenue and adding thousands of new roles last year, demand is real.

On our online MSc Computer Science (Cyber Security) degree you’ll explore everything from secure software development and network defence to digital forensics and ethical hacking, applying your skills to real-world security challenges.

Developed in London, where cyber policy, tech firms and national defence intersect, the programme reflects the strength of the UK’s record-breaking cyber security sector. Study 100% online, full or part-time, and graduate in as little as 14 months, ready to protect the systems that keep industries and societies running.

What you'll learn and why it matters

  • Design and implement secure software, networks, and systems to defend against emerging threats.

  • Apply advanced cyber security techniques in areas such as cryptography, ethical hacking, and digital forensics.

  • Identify and mitigate vulnerabilities using proven tools, methodologies, and security frameworks.

  • Build and manage scalable, cloud-based infrastructure with embedded security best practices.

  • Develop research, project management, and communication skills to lead security initiatives and teams.

Group of colleagues working in data science develop research to apply to computer architectures.

I am currently in full time employment, so being able to study at my own time and being able to be in control of my own studying was really important, and Walbrook provided that as part of their online degrees. Their model really works because you're able to juggle it around your current lifestyle more than the typical degree. Whether you're studying, whether you're part time, or whether you're parents, I would say just go for it.
