WHAT IS UNIQUE ABOUT THE C|CT? PROGRAM

Job Roles

The C|CT certification prepares IT and cybersecurity professionals to handle a wide range of complex issues related to securing software, networks, and IT systems against common cyberthreats and attacks.

The C|CT offers a multifaceted approach that incorporates network defense, ethical hacking, and security operations to ensure that certification holders have a strong, well-rounded background that enables them to configure, analyze, and identify problems within an organization. The C|CT course equips participants with the skills required for the following roles:

  • IT networking specialist
  • Cybersecurity technician
  • IT manager
  • Network administrator
  • Network engineer
  • Security operations center (SOC) analyst

C|CT Key Offerings

  • Strong Foundational Coverage: The C|CT certification provides total foundational cybersecurity domain coverage with key concepts in each domain combined with practical hands-on labs and critical thinking challenges producing world-class cyber security technologists.
  • Live Range Experience: Other popular programs rely on simulation and interactivity as practical-based assessment, the C|CT program is delivered on a live Cyber Range utilizing live targets and real attack systems for a truly immersive, real-life practice and assessment platform.
  • Most Affordable: The Despite the unique design of the heavily hands-on course and its uses of real-world cyber range capability, the certification is one of the most affordable in the world!
  • Capture the Flag: The C|CT certification offers capture the flag (CTF) style critical thinking challenges to accompany each lab exercise putting knowledge into practice and providing a proven record of skill demonstration. Candidates completing the C|CT program will earn the C|CT certification and have a proven track record of performing the tasks required in a live Cyber Range, proving to employers their ability to perform critical job duties.
  • Multiple Certifications: The course outline of the C|CT program goes above and beyond some of the more common entry-level cybersecurity programs, such as the Security+, in a completely hands-on cyber range environment instead of simulations to ensure cybersecurity skills development. We believe that candidates who successfully attain the C|CT certification will attain other leading cybersecurity certifications, including Security+, without further training
