Are you looking to make some portfolio changes? If you are, then it could be worth checking out exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

But which ones could be buys this month? Well, three highly rated ASX ETFs to consider right now are listed below. Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

The first ASX ETF to consider is the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF, which provides investors with access to the growing cybersecurity sector. This means you'll be owning cybersecurity companies such as Accenture, Cisco, Okta, and Splunk. Given that cybersecurity is becoming increasingly important and a failure to protect data can lead to significant brand damage or financial loss, demand for these services is expected to grow strongly in the future.

Betashares Global Uranium ETF (ASX: URNM)

With nuclear power back in style and uranium demand expected to grow strongly over the coming decades, the Betashares Global Uranium ETF could be worth considering. This ASX ETF provides investors with exposure to a portfolio of leading companies in the global uranium industry. This includes locally listed uranium shares Boss Energy Ltd (ASX: BOE) and Paladin Energy Ltd (ASX: PDN).

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

A final ASX ETF for investors to consider is the hugely popular BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF. It gives investors exposure to many of the most iconic companies in the world. This includes giants such as Amazon, Apple, Meta Platforms (Facebook), Microsoft, Netflix, and Tesla. BetaShares highlights that with a strong focus on technology, this ETF provides investors with diversified exposure to a high-growth potential sector that is under-represented on the ASX.
