Topics for MSc in Computer Science with Cyber Security
I am currently undertaking a computer science with cyber security MSc and have been trying to find topics of study for the independent research project which would be interesting to me and I am struggling and am looking for a pointer in the right direction.
I would like to undertake something that is in some way practical in nature to keep it interesting, and the topic has to include some elements of security.
My interests through work are mainly developing serverless applications on AWS and event driven applications and cloud computing but I am really struggling to find something that is both interesting and isn't purely research based and theoretical.
Any pointers would be gratefully received, I still have another four months until I need to write the project proposal but I have already been trying to find something that sparks my interest for the last month or two with little success.

Dear Paul Ockleford,
I propose the following topic for the master's thesis on cybersecurity issues: Applications of blockchain and machine learning technologies and other Industry 4.0 technologies as part of improving the cybersecurity risk management of IT systems operating in computing cloud computing environments, in systems based on the Internet of Things, Big Data, and smart technology solutions etc. The research topic may also concern the improvement of techniques and risk management of cybersecurity of information systems used in internet banking and mobile banking.
Best regards,
Dariusz

How does computer science relate to cyber security?
Computer science is a broad field that involves the study of computers and computing. Cyber security, a subfield of computer science, involves protecting networks, systems and programs from digital hacks. In order to do this work, cyber security specialists rely on their deep understanding of computers and networks.
All cyber security undergraduate degree programs will cover the basics of the field, and some of those core courses you take may include:
- Information Systems.
- Security Systems.
- Information Technology.
- Cyber Defense.
- Ethics, Law & Policy.
- Data Communications & Networking.
- Digital Forensics.
Is cyber security a part of computer science?
CYBERSECURITY DEGREE
