Network Information Security at Henan University (often aligned with the Information Security or Cyberspace Security discipline within the School of Computer Science and Information Engineering) is an engineering and technology programme that focuses on the theory, methods and technologies for protecting information, networks and computing systems from cyber threats. The field integrates foundational knowledge from computer science, network engineering, cryptography, digital forensics and systems security to teach students how to analyse vulnerabilities, design secure systems, detect and respond to attacks, and safeguard data confidentiality, integrity and availability. Students learn core topics such as network security, information content security, cryptography, software security and security engineering, and gain practical skills through laboratory work, simulations and project-based exercises. The programme aims to cultivate professionals who are capable of securing communication networks, defending against cyberattacks, managing information security systems and contributing to research and development in the rapidly evolving cyberspace security landscape — meeting national and industrial needs for skilled cybersecurity talent.
