Why Cybersecurity

Ever since the advent of digital age, technology has grown at a rapid speed with IT permeating into every sphere of life. However, this has given rise to an ever evolving class of cyberthreats, affecting individuals and enterprises. The effects of this new adversity have prominently come to light in the last few years, accounting for cumulative losses of billions of dollars across enterprises. Given the co n t i n u o u s a d va n ce m e n t i n co n n e c te d technologies, coping with and being resilient against cyberattacks are among the top priorities of modern organisations.

As an Academia Partner, KPMG in India will provide the training services including preparing course structure, develop / procure course content, make suitable faculties available for delivering training to participants and provide study material and text books for 3 modules in the program worth 135+ hours of training and 40+ hours of project mentorship.

The program will be delivered through a blended mode, consisting of online and classroom learning. It would consist of a one-week rigorous training program per Trimester at the MIT-WPU Campus, Pune (i.e., three weeks of on-campus training), while the remaining curriculum would be delivered through an online mode.

Postgraduate Diploma in Cybersecurity (PGDCS) is an agile learning program of 11 months’ duration with KPMG in India as an Academia Partner. Eminent cybersecurity practitioners of KPMG in India will leverage their experiential learnings to add value to the program.
