Overview

According to Gartner, the global cybersecurity market size is projected to reach $212 billion in 2025, representing a significant growth rate of around 15%. To meet increased demand, the industry needs more qualified cybersecurity professionals who are trained and certified to join the workforce. This six-month beginner cybersecurity boot camp will help you understand the foundations of cybersecurity and learn the skills required to enter the field with no prior experience.

The cybersecurity course curriculum features 17 engaging lessons across four key sections. Each section includes hands-on activities and a project that allows you to implement and test your newly acquired skills. You will begin by gaining an in-depth introduction to the fundamentals of cybersecurity as well as an exploration of its main certifications, job titles, and career opportunities. Next, you will dive into identifying security threats and vulnerabilities, and how to manage and prevent attacks. You will also review essential security operation principles and technologies, concepts, and operating systems. In addition, you will also gain access to the Infosec Skills platform to leverage their extensive knowledge base to further your training.

With a 15-25 hour per week commitment to master the material, by the end of this self-paced cybersecurity training, you will fully understand what role in cybersecurity best aligns with your career goals and be prepared to navigate challenging job interview questions. The capstone project and final lessons of this course will help you find your first cybersecurity position and finalize your professional portfolio.

Employers look for specific qualifications when reviewing job applications, including IT experience, industry-recognized certifications, and the ability to perform security tasks. This computer security course will help you demonstrate your abilities through your completed projects, detailed explanations of job responsibilities, and practice exams to help you prepare for the CompTIA Security+ certification exam.

Upon successful cybersecurity course completion, you will be provided with a voucher for the CompTIA Security+ certification exam, which covers the cost to sit for the certifying exam upon eligibility.
