Move from zero to entry-level cyber roles in five days. Network defence, phishing response, ethical hacking fundamentals and incident response — hands-on from day one.
Cyber security is the fastest-growing skills shortage in Wales and the wider UK. Every organisation needs it, almost nobody has enough people, and salaries start high.
This five-day bootcamp takes you from the fundamentals through to ethical hacking basics and SOC analyst skills — the entry point to a career that's recession-proof.
No prior security experience needed. If you understand how to use a computer and browse the web, you have the foundation we'll build on.
Mornings are taught sessions, afternoons are hands-on labs where you build something real.
The attacks happening right now, the actors behind them, and why cyber matters more than ever in Wales.
How networks work, where they're vulnerable, and how to defend them with firewalls, monitoring and segmentation.
The attack vector behind 90% of breaches. Learn to spot, report and defend against social engineering at every level.
Switch sides. Learn the same techniques attackers use — legally — to find vulnerabilities before they do.
What happens when an attack succeeds. Triage, containment, eradication, recovery — the skills SOC teams use daily.
A professional vulnerability assessment of a practice environment — the exact deliverable SOC teams produce.
A ready-to-use incident response playbook you can take to any employer to show you understand the process.
Evidence of practical labs including network defence, phishing analysis and ethical hacking exercises.
