Due to the vastness and the interdisciplinary nature of the field of computing and technology field, different institutions of higher learning categorise their courses differently and have different requirements. For example, some may call their degree Bachelor of Information Technology while others may refer to it as Bachelor of Computing Technology or even a Bachelor in Computer Engineering. The subjects taught in these degrees may be the same or may differ slightly. Some institutions may teach networking modules under Computing Technology while others may teach it as a separate degree altogether. Thus there are no cut and dry rules when it comes to the computing world. In general, the principles of computer science and information technology are merged in attempts to offer more encompassing course modules and degrees. |

Information systems security is a focus on the security or the safeguarding and protection measures, policies, procedures and systems that are in place in an organisation to protect its digital data. This field is crucial as businesses rely heavily on their office computers to store confidential documents and accounts information, while individuals rely on Internet security to do their online banking and purchases. A study in this field would include data recovery, backup, cryptography, access control, anomaly detection, network security, malware, Internet security, information security management systems (ISMS) and risk management among others. At UCTI the BSC in Information Technology (Information Systems Security) programme includes a study in general knowledge and skills in relation to Information Technology with a specialised and focused emphasis on Information Systems Security and its application in contemporary industry. |
