Cyber Security Short Course

[RetroRabbit]

I came across a cybersecurity course at CPUT here.
I would like to find out if it is worth it? Or am I better off doing certifications such as CySA+

Would appreciate any feedback!

security + seems like a better deal,

The cyber security page is dodgy here at work, so that already tells me something is not lekker

No idea what is setup here at work. I'm not a geek

Your IT department is running a MITM on your traffic in order to inspect SSL traffic.

Technically not legal but....

Stop patching.
Turn off the firewall
NAT your machine to the internet.

Best CyberSec course ever.

Geeks have all the fun
Like inspecting internet traffic

Chrome should honour the certificate store though,unless this cert isn't imported to your machine at all
Naughty naughty

Course info is a bit sparse,might be VERY VERY barebones
So I guess you'd need to get info on the actual content,and compare that to what you need/want to do
CySA+ is more handsy digging-into-blood-and-guts from a quick gander rather than regulatory and compliance

NQF5 is higher certificate level too if memory serves (Better than matric,worse than a Diploma)

Prof Biermann has a good reputation, as has CPUT, and a short course is just that, a short course. It is what it is.

You're better off with YouTube etc.
