Program description

The Internet's availability powers the information society and enables organisations and consumers to accomplish various activities. This reliance on technology, although significantly beneficial, comes with the risks of cyber-attacks and data breaches. Understandably, protection from these risks has become a top priority. Do you want to have a career protecting organisations and people from cyber threats and keeping networks and information safe? In that case, our cyber security project experience program can lead you on that career path. 

What the program covers

We are all about preparing you for a successful career launch. That is why our project experience program emphasises providing you with the defensive and offensive capabilities to evaluate current cyber security measures, secure systems, networks and information, identify and respond to security breaches, and recover from a breach. Consider this program as one of the best tools you can have to support your entry into the professional world of cyber security.

The program offers a straightforward introduction to cyber security, discussing what the discipline means, the risks it mitigates, and the practices and tools used to prevent breaches and attacks. Aside from the basics, the program takes you through an experiential journey, working on projects and activities like recognising different cyber threats, ethical hacking, managing user access and identities, assessing vulnerability, and conducting penetration tests, among others. Everything you will acquire from this program will be immediately applicable in a professional setting, taking you closer to your dream cyber security career!

  • The Cyber Security Project Experience Program is highly recommended for aspiring cyber security analysts, penetration testers, incident responders, digital forensic experts, security engineers, security architect, security assessor, and information security consultants.
  • Hands-on projects to build in-demand, job-ready skills.
  • Developed by expert cyber security professionals.
  • Learn part-time or full-time and at your desired pace.
  • Build a portfolio you can share to prospective employers.
  • Readily launch your cyber security career.

Solid foundation knowledge is critical to effectively identify and implement the best security measures to protect systems, networks, and information from internal and external threats. For that reason, our project experience program offers you in-depth coverage of cyber security fundamentals like concepts, threats and vulnerabilities, risk management principles, and IAM processes and policies. It also lets you explore network foundations, ethical hacking principles, security audits, and incident response. Moreover, several quizzes are spread throughout to ensure you retain new information and progress through the program.

Through various projects and activities, you will develop skills and experiences that will help distinguish you from the competition once you start applying for cyber security roles. You will learn how to monitor network activities, conduct vulnerability and risk assessments, perform ethical hacking, run penetration testing, write reports, respond to incidents, and do the process of backing up before any breach arises.

Using relevant industry tools and strategies is critical to effectively implement vulnerability countermeasures and protect systems, networks and information attacks and breaches. As you move along the program, you will have the chance to use Wireshark, Kali Linux, Metasploit, and more.
