A Career in Cybersecurity Empowers You

We have helped +300 students across the United States start their journey in the field, with 80% of them getting a job as an analyst through a proprietary approach to education that offers:

Speed

Traditional routes into cybersecurity can be lengthy, often requiring years of study. This intensive bootcamp is designed to fast-track your entry into the industry, condensing essential learning and practical experience. Simply put, it’s a time-efficient pathway.

Mastery

Practical knowledge leads to expertise. Our program bridges theory and hands-on training, teaching essential cybersecurity tools like Metasploit, OWASP Zap, and Splunk. It ends with a Capstone Project, a tangible demonstration of your skills to potential employers.

Support

Navigating the job market can be as challenging as learning new skills. The good news is we can address both. Our program combines job placement assistance with guidance from instructors and teaching assistants at every step of your journey to ensure you’re job-ready.

Networking

Access to industry leaders can transform education into career opportunities. With the ‘Career Ambassador Sessions’, the program brings CISOs and Security Directors to give weekly lectures to open doors to valuable industry connections and mentorship opportunities.

Certifications

Meeting industry standards is the gateway to new opportunities. Prepare for the CompTIA Security+ certification, validating core cybersecurity skills, and the Azure AZ900 certification, demonstrating knowledge of cloud services. Both enhance students’ marketability in the tech space.

CyberWarrior has given me the opportunity to increase my financial stability.

I started out as a chef, and when the pandemic hit, I didn’t know what I was going to do. I was able to find CyberWarrior online and pivot into cybersecurity. CyberWarrior has really given me the opportunity to focus on not only a new career but also to have lots of time to spend with my family and be productive.

Don’t give up because it’s all worth it.

I started working within banks, and in banks, you learn a lot about physical security, what to look for, and how to keep others safe.

So, I ended up taking that passion, and I wanted to transfer it to more skills and keep developing, and that’s where the cybersecurity portion came in.

You’re going to learn something new every day, and you gotta keep going.

I was a guitar player in the Army Band for 15 years. When I decided to get out, I didn’t know what to do, honestly, but at the Army Transition Assistance Program, they talked a lot about cybersecurity.

So, I did a lot of research and luckily found CyberWarrior.

I think that CyberWarrior Academy provided a foundation to build on with the certification training and also brought in all the Subject Matter Experts to provide their experience, tips, and advice on how to perform in security.

If I hadn’t had CyberWarrior Academy training, I think it would have been much more difficult to get the job that I am in now. I do think that the training and advocacy were pivotal in my career.
