Course Brief

Basic Cyber Security

The foundation programme — networking, protocols, cryptography, malware and security hygiene built from zero, entirely in the lab.

Everything else in the Academy assumes this ground. Fifteen modules take you from how a packet actually moves to why a hash matters, with nothing left as theory you are told to trust.

You build the networking base first — OSI and TCP/IP, addressing and subnetting, the protocols that carry real traffic — then move into the security layer: the CIA triad, malware families and how ransomware behaves, social engineering as an attack surface, and the cryptography that everything defensive is built on.

The programme closes on the practical side of defence: password and MFA implementation, endpoint and OS hardening, wireless and web basics, and the policies that decide whether any of it survives contact with real users.
