Workshops (Weekly and FREE)
- Cyber Security Level 1. No previous knowledge is required, however a lot of hard work,
commitment and patience is required to succeed in this field. We also cover material not
included in the book, such as Operating Systems and detailed hands-on Hardware knowledge.
- Cyber Security Level 2. Requires a good command of Level 1 and more hard work, commitment and
patience.
- Hardware Labs. Using actual hardware, we learn to build Servers and Clients, Install and
Manage Operating Systems and Virtual Machines, Setup Access Points to create wireless
connections, Create Hardware Firewalls, Manage Switches, Make Network and Telephone Cables,
and how to create and manage other required hardware.
