Frequently asked questions

Key information before you start

No. Each course can be taken independently. The full pathway is required only for the Cybersecurity Architect certification.
It covers both: prevention, monitoring, and response, along with ethical hacking and controlled penetration testing.
Not for the introductory course. Networking, ethical hacking, SOC, identity, and architecture modules require technical fundamentals.
Training and certification are managed separately. You may take the assessment after the course or at a later date.
Yes. Labs, tools, scenarios, and the final project can be tailored to the organization's industry, risks, and architecture.
