Advanced Diploma in CyberSecurity

Ethical hacking is the process of identifying vulnerabilities in a computer system or network and figuring out how to best protect them. It isn’t an easy task to perform, but with our ethical hacking training course, we make it as easy as possible for you.

Cybersecurity is one of the fastest growing field. The application and cloud security fields alone are estimated to grow 164% and 115% respectively.

The course begins with the basics, teaching you how to set up your lab and understand some of the key terms that may be used. After that, we get into how to actually hack networks by using Kali Linux installation and then navigating through it efficiently. Throughout the course you'll learn about what steps hackers take and what tools they use in their hacking process. This category is best suited for individuals who want to start their career or switch their domain to cybersecurity. The course offers introduction to the cybersecurity domain, terminologies, attacks and their corresponding practicals that would enable you to gain knowledge to safeguard your networks from attackers. This course is therefore designed to get you started into Cybersecurity and is suitable for student of any IT professional who want to develop career in Cybersecurity. This course assumes you have NO prior knowledge. The course covers topics from ground level and take you to mastery levels. The course is regularly updated to cover the latest topics. By the end of it you'll be able to hack systems and also secure them.
