Why study cyber security?
The Oxford Cyber Security for Business Leaders Programme prepares leaders from all industries for the increasingly complex future of cyber security. Participants will gain a full understanding of the challenges and potential of cyber, along with the frameworks and vocabulary enabling them to make strategic decisions to help secure their organisation’s cyber-resilient future.

"Understanding how to manage cyber-risk whilst embracing digital opportunity is crucial if we are to remain resilient in the face of growing cyber-attacks. This programme is designed to help current and future business leaders develop awareness of core aspects of cybersecurity, contextualise reports on new threats, and make informed decisions on how to react to emerging tech trends. It will assist leaders to become more awake to the socio-technical challenge of cybersecurity, to be more effective in taking a lead role in ensuring it is embedded into the DNA of business, and to be able to create and innovate new digital solutions responsibly."

Professor of Cyber Security,
