Cyber Defense and Digital Forensics

We've Been At It Since 1999.

 

Edmonds College is certified as a Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense by the National Security Agency and the Department of Homeland Security.   With the next-generation cyber skills our students develop, they are able to anticipate and avoid cyber threats, protect an organization’s valuable data assets, and can gather, analyze, and present evidence of security breaches and incidents due to cyber terrorists or other intruders.  And if that’s not all, our program is instructed by internationally recognized professionals who are Cyberterrorism subject matter experts for Department of Homeland Security programs.  See you in class!
