THE BOOTCAMP
How is it possible to learn cybersecurity in only three months?

Who are the instructors?
The instructor is the platform, which was developed by Cybint’s cybersecurity experts. Through the platform, you will access content as well as practice labs and scenarios. In addition, every cohort will be assigned a facilitator, who will be supporting your learning experience and ensuring no one is left behind.
How will I learn practical cybersecurity skills?
In order for you to practice the skills you learn, the Bootcamp includes over 100 unique hands-on exercises that run in virtual machines. These are safe environments where you will be able to run different operating systems, access various tools without installing them on your computer, and practice confidently without putting your computer at risk.
How does the remote version of the Bootcamp work?
In the remote version of the Bootcamp, you will get together with your classmates and facilitator over video conference twice a day, once in the morning and once at the end of the day. During the day, you will be able to communicate with classmates and facilitators via messaging platform.
What are the minimal computer requirements and what is the recommended setup?
In order to participate effectively in the Bootcamp, you will need a laptop able to run video conferencing. This includes an up-to- date operating system, a stable high-speed internet connection, and a working camera and microphone. For a more detailed list please refer to the Zoom System Requirements. In addition, a second screen is recommended for optimal experience.
Is the Cybint Platform web-based or do I need to download software to a PC?
Everything is browser-based so there is no need to install any app or software. We recommend using Chrome internet browser for best experience.
