Our Model

What is a
Cybersecurity Clinic?

Modeled after legal and medical school clinics, we provide free cybersecurity services to community organizations while giving students real-world experience.

A cybersecurity clinic provides cybersecurity services to community organizations, including small businesses, nonprofits, cities and towns, rural school districts, small utilities and more, while giving students real-world cybersecurity experience.

Modeled after legal and medical school clinics, cybersecurity clinics are typically housed at colleges and universities under the direction of clinical professors. Students from diverse backgrounds and degree paths train to provide free cybersecurity assistance to clients who could not otherwise afford these services.

Our Clinic Approach

Clinics serve as a skills-based learning environment for students and as a vital local resource for improving the cybersecurity resilience of communities. At CyberSquad, we adapt this model to fit Lesotho's unique context.
