Aman Kumar | Cyber Security Trainer
This Diploma program provides a comprehensive foundation in cyber security and related technologies. Semester I covers cyber security basics, OSI/TCP-IP models, security layers, cyber threats, CIA triad, cybercrimes, and laws like IT Act 2000 and GDPR. It introduces programming concepts, algorithms, and languages, alongside cyber forensics, digital communication, network topologies, attacks (e.g., DDoS), and vulnerabilities. Students explore Windows/Linux OS, virtualization, web technologies, Python for hacking (using Scapy, Nmap), digital/financial literacy, and workplace safety. Semester II focuses on cyber security frameworks (NIST, ISO 27001), SOC operations, intrusion detection, malware analysis, and exploitation techniques. It includes SOC analyst skills (threat detection, incident triage), Blue Teaming, incident response, entrepreneurship, and communication/personality development, emphasizing leadership, planning, and life skills.
Objectives
The Diploma in Cybersecurity is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in information security principles, cyber threat detection, and hands-on skills in defending digital infrastructure. This program introduces learners to core security concepts, practical tools, ethical hacking methodologies, and modern cybersecurity frameworks necessary for securing both organizational and personal digital assets. The course balances theoretical understanding with real-world lab-based learning to make learners industry-ready. Following is the objective list:
To introduce fundamental concepts of cybersecurity, including threats, vulnerabilities, and risk management.
To provide hands-on experience with tools used for network scanning, log analysis, and malware detection.
To develop skills in ethical hacking, penetration testing, and cyber forensics.
To enable learners to identify and mitigate different types of cyber attacks.
To build awareness about cybersecurity laws, privacy concerns, and best practices.
To prepare students for entry-level roles such as SOC Analyst, Cybersecurity Technician, or Ethical Hacker.
What Will You Learn
By the end of this diploma program, you will gain a thorough understanding of how cyber threats work and how to defend against them using both manual and automated techniques. You will learn to work with Linux-based systems, use Python for scripting security tasks, configure firewalls, and set up testing environments using virtual machines. The course also covers threat intelligence, security operations, and common attack vectors like phishing, brute-force, and DDoS attacks. With a strong focus on hands-on labs, this course will equip you with the skills required to analyze, detect, and respond to security incidents in real-world environments.

SOC analyst A SOC Analyst is the front-line defender in any cybersecurity team. Their main role is to monitor and analyze activity on networks, servers, endpoints, and databases to identify potential threats or suspicious behavior. SOC Analysts respond to incidents, investigate them, and help strengthen the security infrastructure to prevent future attacks.
Key Skills to Learn
Networking basics, Operating systems, Security tool, Log analysis, Incident handling Threat intelligence
Penetration tester A Penetration Tester (also called an Ethical Hacker) is a cybersecurity expert who simulates real-world cyberattacks on systems, networks, and applications — with legal permission — to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious hackers. The goal is to strengthen an organization's security posture by proactively discovering and reporting security flaws before attackers do. Pentesters think like hackers but act ethically to help companies fix security gaps. They work with red teams, security consultants, or independently through bug bounty programs.
