Guy Brown, Director of Northumbria’s London campus, said: “Northumbria University London Campus has a strong track record in both research and teaching in the areas of Cyber Security, Cyber Technology and wider Information Security Management.
“This programme certification from the National Cyber Security Centre reflects our commitment to this subject area, our research and practitioner informed curriculum, the fantastic campus resources and our wider activity in this rapidly emerging area.
