The use of the internet as a tool of international commerce is expanding at a very rapid rate. Countries that are years behind in technology have been catapulted into the 21st century by virtue of easy access to the internet and social media. There is therefore a need for specialists in the area of cybersecurity to develop the resources necessary for monitoring, designing and containing the explosion in the threat of cyberterrorism.
Recent events in Ukraine, Nigeria, the Middle East (Yemen) and South Sudan point to the need for technology to confront the global spread of terrorism. Nations are increasingly developing the capability of surveillance of other countries; countervailing strategies therefore need to be developed to handle the inordinate growth in the incidence of cyberterrorism worldwide.

- Management of information security
- Principles of information security management
