Junior Pro - Vocational training Cyber Security Analyst Junior Pro | CYBERSECURITY & CLOUD duration Part-time
The CyberSecurity Analyst Junior Pro course is a comprehensive programme that prepares you to become a highly sought-after professional in the field of cyber-security. In an increasingly interconnected world—where digital-age threats keep multiplying—the Security Analyst’s role is pivotal.
The curriculum’s primary aim is to build dual-track expertise: defensive operations (Blue Team) and offensive techniques (Red Team), while adding the fundamentals of information-security management. These capabilities are indispensable today for countering ever-more sophisticated attacks, fuelled in part by the widespread adoption of artificial intelligence.
Recent headlines prove the stakes: national and multinational companies in finance, insurance, automotive, HR, fashion and luxury have all been hit, as well as government agencies and public-sector organisations—embassies, ministries, postal services. Targets are growing more diverse, spanning firms of every size and industry, underscoring one reality: no one is immune to cyber-crime.
