Monday, January 29, 2018 - 11:00

Cybersecurity is essential for business. We present five universities that offer this degree.

On Friday, May 12, the largest ransomware cyberattack on record was recorded worldwide.

With this event it is clear that cybersecurity is a serious thing, and necessary to promote stability in companies. However, there is a shortage of professionals in this area.

In Mexico alone there will be 1.5 million vacancies related to cybersecurity, which will not be filled in 2019, according to a SiliconWeek study.

In part, this effect may be the result of the fact that in Mexico there are few institutions that offer careers related to the area.

However, there are some universities that offer diplomas and master's degrees in related topics:
