Learning opportunities in OUSPG

As digitalisation deepens and spreads to new areas of life, the need to ensure and safeguard its operations also increases. The University of Oulu strengthens the training of cyber security experts. The training will focus on the technical competence needed to ensure cyber security. OUSPG also takes part for the new cyber security curriculum. We currently offer several public resources which are used as a part of our teaching.
