The best program depends a lot on what you want to do, not sure what advice to give there. Cyber-security sounds like a good fit but you can probably tailor any of those programs to fit your needs so long as the university offers the classes.

You will definitely need GREs for the actual program, and your employer may require that you be in a degree program before they will pay for classes - degree programs and individual classes are often funded differently depending on the company.

I would recommend you take the GRE before graduating but it is not crucial - these programs are not highly selective in most cases. No idea if you need the Math GRE specifically, you would need to check with the programs.

I also work for a MD employer and got my masters part time at JHU. Feel free to message me for specific questions, we may be talking about the same company.
