    WESSON – Copiah-Lincoln Community College’s Wesson Campus has announced the launch of a new Career and Technical program, Cybersecurity Technology, beginning in the Fall 2019 semester. The two-year program was formed in response to business and industry needs for more skilled computer technicians, specifically in the areas of information security. Registration for the program is open now.

            “In today’s environment, businesses are calling for more and more qualified Cybersecurity technicians,” said Co-Lin Dean of Career, Technical and Workforce Education Brent Duguid. “We are proud to answer that call and offer such a program for Co-Lin students. Businesses across the state and nation have endless opportunities for employment upon program completion.”

Classes include wireless security and privacy, network defense and countermeasures, security testing and implementation, and Linux/Unix security.
