About Network & Information Security / with Management Studies, MSc - at Kingston University London

Cyber security, the umbrella term for computer, network and information security, is of increasing importance. New legislation, technologies, vulnerabilities and threats necessitate frequent system updates. 

Our Network and Information Security MSc course will equip you with a critical awareness of current developments and future trends in cryptography, network security and mobile/wireless security. 

You will explore techniques and technologies to combat threats, such as malware, social engineering, data leakage or zero-day attacks. All the techniques taught are underpinned by an understanding of secure authentication mechanisms, access control, intrusion detection, information security policies and user education. 

This course can also be combined with Management Studies, to allow you to develop key business and management skills.

A project/dissertation will enable you to study an area of interest in depth and gain valuable research skills. Your project is usually relevant to your career, so it provides an excellent selling point when you are looking for a job or promotion. If you are an overseas student, we will help you to carry out a project either based in your home country or that will be of specific relevance when you return home.

Many of our staff in the Faculty are research active. This ensures they are in touch with the latest thinking and bring best practice to your studies. Computing research activities are focused around the following main research centres:

  • Digital Imaging Research Centre – offering expertise in computer vision, medical imaging, visual surveillance, ambient intelligence, machine learning and computer graphics.
  • Wireless Multimedia and Networking Research Group  – The research group carries out fundamental and applied research on wireless communications and networking, media streaming and closely related fields.

Industry contacts provide demonstrations of current technology for you to explore. We also organise vendor seminars to expose you to current and emerging technologies.
