But Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Coimbatore is the only university at that time which offered M.Tech in Cyber Security. I have applied with my GATE rank and got admission directly. Now the process has been changed because of the large number of applications to the department. Admission process contains written test and an interview.
