“Once upon a time, computer bugs were annoying, an inconvenience at the worst,” according to VC editors, “but today, cyber attacks can take down Hollywood studios and government agencies.” Online cybersecurity degree programs offer opportunity: “while professionals can get into a cybersecurity job with just a certification or experience, their path forward will be limited without a degree.” Value Colleges’ rankings of the most affordable bachelor’s and master’s programs in cybersecurity are for the working adults who want to shift their career into cybersecurity, or advance in their current cybersecurity career.
