This course was born out of frustration. There is little end-to-end training available for the offensive-cybersecurity side of embedded systems of all types including the Internet-of-Things and Operational Technology.
The training that exists can often be based upon slide decks, a lecture and then a chunk of time for you to get on and have a play. What’s more, there seems to be few providers that cover the whole range of knowledge and skill that is needed for this type of work.
It should be clear then that these modules are about you developing skills and knowledge. We anticipate that the people who will be interested in this course will most be those very technical, hands on “do-ers” of the world.
So, if you are a practitioner of anything highly detailed and technology-based you are in the right place.
You might provide services such as penetration testing, or design and engineering of electronic products, or perhaps you simply deliver projects by using the nitty-gritty of technology of any description. If that sounds like you, or where you are already heading, you will find each of these modules interesting and enlightening.
Individuals that only have management responsibilities may not find that all of this course fits with their requirements. That said, if that is you and you are trying to change your career path then it might actually be great for you. But be prepared for an intense few days.
If you aren’t sure whether this course is for you, we do have an introduction style module in development. Think foundational knowledge and operational challenges whilst dipping into the more technical parts of the subject.
So if you aren’t sure, pop your name down for this module and we will let you know as soon as it is ready (expected approximately April 2025), or even, get in touch and we can discuss where you are, what you are looking for, and how we can work it out together.
This course is designed as a series of modules that could be completed sequentially. There is no requirement to do the other modules at all, or in the suggested order to be able to do this one. Some students, particularly those with less experience, might find attending each course in sequence appealing and may make their overall learning easier as each module introduces concepts that are intrinsically part of later modules.
You may have noticed that not all modules are currently available – these are being developed at the moment and will be completed based upon the demand we receive. So if you want one of them, let us know to get it prioritised and to give us your details so we can contact you with progress.
