VIRGINIA BEACH, VA (Dec. 10, 2024) – Regent University’s online cybersecurity bachelor’s program clinched the #5 position in the 2025 Cybersecurity Guide’s Top 25 Best Online Programs—up seven spots from last year’s national ranking.

“We are incredibly pleased that the Cybersecurity Guide is watching the growth and on-going development of Regent’s cutting-edge program,” said Dr. Cheryl Beauchamp, Director of the Institute for Cybersecurity. “Our program cultivates an understanding of the layers of security needed to protect sensitive information, detect vulnerabilities, and respond to attacks. Our daily lives are highly dependent on safeguards in high-stakes, complex landscapes—and Regent graduates are ready to lead future efforts to keep us safe.”

Cybersecurity Guide’s rankings are based on data from the National Center for Education Statistics, specifically the Integrated Postsecondary Data System (IPEDS) and College Navigator, along with tuition and credit information from each university website.
