10 h/weekThe goal of cybersecurity is to identify cyber risks and reduce them to an acceptable level. From a strategic view, an organization’s cyber-security program and cyber risk management has to fulfill five core functions. There have to be processes to identify cyber risks, a deployment of safeguards and detection capabilities, as well as organizational and technical measures to respond and recover from a cyber incident.
The module provides students with an over-view and understanding of the principles of information security management that are commonly used in industry. It introduces widely used cybersecurity standards, frameworks, and methods. It explores critically the suitability and appropriateness of these standards, frameworks and methods for addressing challenges on today's organizational security requirements.

1: Generally all mandatory modules of a study program can be selected as an elective in all study programs in which they are not offered as a mandatory module. However, there are several rules that apply. First, at least half of the selected electives have to be taken from your study program. Second, all electives are only available in either odd or even quarters. Therefore, not all electives are available in all programs (given that you want to finish the program within the regular time frame and do not want to take that elective in parallel to your impact project.)
