Frequently Asked Questions
Security Testing is the process of investigating a software program’s security features to find holes, weak spots, and possible threats. It is very important to protect software systems from unauthorized entry, data leaks, and other security risks.
Even if you know something about security already, you can still learn about Security Testing. It helps to have a basic knowledge of how software is made and to be aware of common security issues.
Learning about Security Testing can help you find security holes, understand different types of threats (like SQL injection and cross-site scripting), analyse security risks, and suggest ways to fix them.
In a typical Security Testing course, topics like penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, and code review, as well as security testing tools, safe coding practises, threat modelling, and risk assessment, are covered.
Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), and Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) are all examples of such certifications.
It depends on how much you already know, how much you want to learn, and how hard you want to learn. Two months is enough time to learn the basics.
You can do Security Testing by working on projects like running penetration tests on a web application, analysing the security of a mobile app, performing a vulnerability assessment on a network, or reviewing code for security flaws.
Yes, we do offer help after training to help you get a job. This help includes access to tools, chances to meet new people, help with making a resume, and help getting ready for an interview.
Learning about Security Testing can lead to jobs like Security Tester, Penetration Tester, Ethical Hacker, Security Analyst, and roles in cybersecurity consulting or IT security teams.
Sam’s deep understanding of network security ideas and real-world experience made it easy for students to understand difficult network security concepts. His expertise on how to set up firewalls, analyses network data, and fix security holes will be very helpful.
