Assessment Commentary
Over 30 universities and higher education colleges identified which offer Computer Science or Information Technology degrees at BSc or MSc level; however, very few offer any cyber security or information security specific courses. The sample of Computer Science courses that have been reviewed offer only small levels of content which is security related. The outreach training offered by ACIC looks promising.
