BSIDES International Cybersecurity Conference. Day 1

The Vice Rector for Digitalization and Cybersecurity of UNWE Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rosen Kirilov greeted the participants in the Conference. On behalf of the Rector, Prof. Dimitar Dimitrov, allow me to welcome you to our University. We are grateful to the organizers that for the second consecutive year this event is held at the UNWE, for us it is an honour, a privilege and a great responsibility. As a host of the Forum we see our modest involvement in the formation and maintenance of a community of cybersecurity practitioners which is of exclusive importance as to business as to the public sector and the country as a whole. Our University has been quite active in cybersecurity education in recent years and we have a very successful Master's degree programme in Cybersecurity Management. This year we hope to be able to launch a Bachelor's degree programme in Cybersecurity focused not so much on the technical aspects but rather on the management and organization which are very important for every organization", said Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rosen Kirilov. He outlined that the UNWE works and has taken a number of actions in terms of cybersecurity and digitalization. He also emphaised: "I could most responsibly declare that the UNWE is a leader in digitalization among higher education institutions".
