ABOUT THE PROGRAM

CYBERSECURITY FOR ALL

Cybersecurity for All is a FREE, 11-week training program for talented individuals. Admission is meritocratic and the class will be selected for representation. The program trains you to become a certified Security Analyst and then connects you with job opportunities.

The program is entirely cost-free for students. We never charge up-front, we don't do income sharing agreements, and we never make our students take out loans. The time commitment is ~15 hours per week for the 11 weeks of class, and class timings are designed to fit with the schedules of adults and students working full-time.

We focus on teaching industry-standard tools so that you can effectively understand the fundamentals of networks and analytical tools used for system security. Over the course of the program, you will learn advanced topics including ports, protocols, subnetting, Kali Linux, system architecture, cryptography, network analytics, cloud security, social engineering, incident response, and much more.

"Without the DS4A community's encouragement and support through the hiring process, I could've never gotten my data engineering internship at Point72. Other programs, even great college classes, teach you theory; DS4A teaches you not just that, but also how to apply it to change the world."
