What We Teach Cybersecurity Skills

Hands-on, real-world cybersecurity skills delivered by experts and peer mentors across campuses. From foundational concepts to advanced techniques.

Training

Comprehensive
Cybersecurity Curriculum

Our programs cover the full spectrum of cybersecurity — from foundational concepts to advanced offensive and defensive techniques.

AI in Security

Explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping both offensive and defensive cybersecurity — from AI-powered threat detection to adversarial ML attacks.

Advanced

Bug Bounty 101

Learn to find and report vulnerabilities ethically. Understand scope, responsible disclosure, and how to write professional bug reports.

Beginner

Network Security & Defense

Firewalls, IDS/IPS, VPNs, traffic analysis with Wireshark, and building resilient network architectures against real-world attacks.

Intermediate

Mobile App Security

Android and iOS security testing — APK reverse engineering, API vulnerabilities, insecure data storage, and secure coding practices.

Intermediate

Information Gathering & OSINT

WHOIS, DNS enumeration, Shodan, Maltego, theHarvester, and open-source intelligence frameworks for professional reconnaissance.

Foundational

Ethical Hacking

Full penetration testing methodology — footprinting, scanning, exploitation, privilege escalation, and post-exploitation reporting.

Advanced

Web Application Security

OWASP Top 10 deep dive — SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, SSRF, broken authentication, and hands-on exploitation with Burp Suite.

Intermediate

Cryptography Fundamentals

Symmetric and asymmetric encryption, hashing algorithms, PKI, TLS/SSL, and common cryptographic attacks like padding oracle and hash collision.

Foundational

Cloud Security

Securing AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud environments — IAM misconfigurations, S3 bucket exposure, serverless risks, and cloud-native attack paths.

Advanced

Malware Analysis

Static and dynamic analysis of malicious software using sandboxes, disassemblers, and behaviour monitoring tools like Cuckoo and IDA Pro.

Advanced

Digital Forensics

Evidence acquisition, file system forensics, memory dumps, log analysis, and chain-of-custody procedures using Autopsy and Volatility.

Intermediate

Threat Intelligence

Gathering and analysing threat data, understanding threat actor TTPs using the MITRE ATT&CK framework, and producing actionable intelligence reports.

Intermediate

Incident Response

Preparation, detection, containment, eradication, and recovery — real-world IR playbooks, SIEM triage, and post-incident reporting.

Intermediate

Secure Coding Practices

Writing security-first code in Python, JavaScript, and Java — input validation, secure APIs, dependency management, and SAST/DAST tooling.

Foundational

Wireless & IoT Security

WPA2/3 cracking, rogue access points, Bluetooth attacks, and securing Internet of Things devices in smart home and industrial environments.

Intermediate

Social Engineering & Phishing

Understanding human attack vectors — phishing simulation, vishing, pretexting, and building organisational defenses against manipulation tactics.

Foundational

Linux & System Hardening

Kali Linux mastery, privilege escalation techniques, system hardening checklists, and securing servers against common misconfigurations.

Foundational

Capture The Flag (CTF)

Competitive hacking challenges covering pwn, reverse engineering, web, crypto, and forensics — from beginner Picoctf to advanced HackTheBox machines.

All Levels

Cyber Law & Ethics

Lesotho and international cybercrime legislation, responsible disclosure frameworks, data protection (GDPR/POPIA), and ethical hacker obligations.

Foundational

Active Directory Attacks

Kerberoasting, Pass-the-Hash, BloodHound enumeration, and defending Windows domain environments against internal lateral movement.

Advanced

Security Operations (SOC)

SOC analyst fundamentals — SIEM platforms (Splunk/ELK), log correlation, alert triage, and building detection rules for real-world threats.

Intermediate

Reverse Engineering

Disassembling binaries, understanding assembly language, patching executables, and analysing compiled code with Ghidra and x64dbg.

Advanced

Identity & Access Management

OAuth 2.0, SAML, MFA bypass techniques, zero-trust architecture, and securing identity pipelines in enterprise and cloud environments.

Intermediate

Dark Web & Threat Monitoring

Safely navigating Tor, monitoring paste sites and forums for leaked credentials, and setting up early-warning threat monitoring systems.
