The Undergraduate Certificate in Security Computing will teach students how to apply the Python programming language to solve cybersecurity problems and conduct digital investigations. Students will learn how to develop, debug, execute, and deploy offensive and defensive python scripts; how to develop algorithms, determine the complexity of the algorithm, and identify cases in which the algorithm would/would not provide a reasonable approach for solving the specific problem; how to use Python to visualize security datasets; and how to develop Python-based machine learning models to detect, analyze, and defeat cyber deception operations. Upon completion of the certificate, students will be able to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses associated with the use of automated tools to solve complex security-related problems; create and use Python-based algorithmic solutions; and be able to apply existing Python libraries to support common security-related tasks.
