Cybersecurity Department
Nigerian fintechs, banks and public agencies are hiring defenders faster than schools can produce them, and NDPR enforcement has made compliance skills billable. This department builds you into a job-ready analyst: networking and operating-system fundamentals first, then hands-on labs in threat detection, ethical hacking, digital forensics and incident response, plus structured preparation for CompTIA Security+ and CEH. You finish with a documented lab portfolio and an incident-response runbook you wrote yourself.

Cybersecurity — frequently asked questions
Do I need a computer science degree?
No. Most of our security graduates come from other disciplines. What matters is completing the labs and being able to explain your findings clearly.
Are certification exam fees included?
Training and exam preparation are included; the vendor exam fee is paid directly to CompTIA or EC-Council when you sit for it.
