- IT & Network Foundation (Help Desk)
The IT & Network Foundation course is designed for beginners who want to start a career in IT. It covers computer fundamentals, operating systems basics, essential networking concepts, IP addressing, how the internet works, introductory security practices, and technical support skills. The training is hands-on and scenario-based, providing a strong foundation for advanced tracks such as Linux, CCNA, and System Administration.
- Cybersecurity
Throughout the Cybersecurity course, students learn how computers, networks, and applications work and how attackers can exploit them. Step by step, they learn to think both like a defender and an ethical hacker. The training combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on practical exercises, allowing students to apply what they learn in real-world scenarios. The course helps students develop a strong digital security mindset and build responsible and safe internet habits.
- GRC & IT Audit
The GRC & IT Audit course is a practical training program designed for professionals who want to understand and apply governance, risk management, and compliance processes in organizations. The course covers GRC fundamentals, IT controls, risk assessment, internal control systems, IT audit methodologies, audit planning, and reporting. Training is based on real business and audit scenarios, helping learners develop a structured and analytical approach to GRC and IT Audit practices.
- FortiGate Firewall Administration
The FortiGate course is a hands-on training program focused on network security and firewall administration. You will learn initial FortiGate setup, interface and routing configuration, firewall policies, NAT, VPN fundamentals (IPsec/SSL), user authentication, security profiles (web filtering, application control, antivirus), logging and monitoring, troubleshooting, and best practices through real lab scenarios. The course builds practical skills for Network Security and System/Network Administrator roles.
- CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate)
The CCNA course is designed to build professional networking knowledge and hands-on skills. You will learn networking fundamentals, TCP/IP, IP addressing and subnetting, switching and routing concepts, VLAN, STP, OSPF basics, ACL, NAT, wireless, network security fundamentals, and troubleshooting through practical lab sessions. The training supports CCNA exam preparation and develops job-ready skills for network engineer and network administrator roles.
- DevSecOps
DevSecOps is an approach that combines software development (Development), security (Security), and operations (Operations). Its main goal is not to leave security checks to the very last stage of the project, but to integrate them into every single step of the process from the very first day the code is written.
FAQ
- Can I start a cybersecurity course from scratch?
- Knowing networking and systems basics is recommended. Without that foundation, start with IT & Network Foundation (Help Desk) or CCNA first.
- Should I choose Blue Team or Red Team?
- Blue Team focuses on detecting and defending against attacks; Red Team focuses on finding weaknesses through authorized attacks. Entry-level roles (e.g., SOC analyst) are more common on the Blue Team track.
- How long do the courses run?
- Blue Team and Red Team training run for 4 months, with classes twice a week.
- Are classes held online?
- Classes are hybrid: held in person, with the option to join online and watch the recording later.
