Cybersecurity is the study of how to protect computers, networks, software, and data from unauthorized access, damage, and disruption. In this course, students learn the basic threats people and organizations face, such as malware, phishing, weak passwords, web attacks, and insecure systems, along with the methods used to reduce those risks.
Cybersecurity (Computer Science 270) is a 3-credit course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, graded 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignments, and 50% Final Exam. After you complete the course, your transcript can be sent to Indiana Tech, where it is recognized as CYS 1100 – Cybersecurity, a named course equivalency that matches a specific catalog course.
The course builds practical awareness of threats such as malware, phishing, weak passwords, web attacks, and insecure systems, which can help you make better decisions around personal and workplace data. At Indiana Tech, that credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, where cybersecurity knowledge may fit into broader technical and professional study.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent to Indiana Tech for review. Indiana Tech applies the credit as CYS 1100 – Cybersecurity, which means the course is not just counted as general transfer credit but as a named course in the Indiana Tech catalog. That kind of equivalency gives you clearer placement in your degree plan for programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. Indiana Tech allows up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree, and curriculum-related coursework with a grade of C or better is considered for credit.
This course is a good fit for students who want to move toward Indiana Tech with a clear course match already in hand, especially if they are trying to stay on track within the 90-credit transfer limit. It is also useful for students who prefer a course that has a named recognition, since Indiana Tech lists it as CYS 1100 – Cybersecurity. It is not the best choice for someone who needs an elective with open-ended transfer possibilities at many schools, because this page is specific to Indiana Tech.
Indiana Institute of Technology (Indiana Tech) is HLC-accredited and accepts transfer credit from both regionally and nationally accredited institutions. Curriculum-related coursework with a grade of C or better is considered for credit.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
