‍Why this bootcamp is different

Most cybersecurity courses give you theory. This one drops you into live-fire practice. The first two weeks establish your foundation: terminology, networking, OSI model, Active Directory, registry functions, hashing, and encryption. From there, you’ll move into attacker operations, like password cracking, cookie theft, Mimikatz, malware development, and EDR evasion.

Then you’ll flip roles and defend: Deploying Zero Trust policies, allowlisting, network controls, and automated responses.

Every step mirrors real-world scenarios security teams face daily. You’ll attack, defend, and understand both sides of the battle.
