As for "software engineering technology", you can learn that as you go along (if needed). Information systems security would be my first choice, as for any firms, Security is a must for all data on any system(s). Hope all goes well.
You are only at the enrollment stage - you don't even know what the chairs feel like.
Some chairs are comfier than others, and with the chairs some students are comfier with one subject than the other.
There is little to zero point of making your mind up, less than zero based on what any of us tell you, because we all ended up doing what we are doing (or have done) based not on what we preferred but on what we were any good at.
You might opt for the wrong specialism based on equally wrong advice.
ANYONE who reckons they know which one YOU should opt for, is talking bullsh|t. We don't know you the person and more importantly you can only see a bunch of pixels on a screen representing us.
Which one was the one that drew you to the course?
No matter what anyone else tells you to do, if you end up in a specialism that you are rotten at doing, it'll be a dead-end street career-wise.
Only you can decide, based on what you enjoy doing. If you don't enjoy doing it you'll never make it, regardless of what it pays.
Software engineering will be nice, if you can do it, it can bring in the big money. But you will need security also. But the choice really is yours, there is no guaranty you will be in THE money as it were, but at least you might live comfortably. Good luck anyway on which you decide on. :)
