Practice with purpose

From lab exercises to a portfolio.

Example projects across the three learning tracks. All security testing takes place in authorized lab environments; confirm the current project assignments with our team.

Secure a small enterprise network

Cisco Packet Tracer · Wireshark

Build VLANs and routing, apply access controls and verify traffic flows.

Portfolio output: Network diagram, configurations and a troubleshooting checklist.

Assess a vulnerable lab application

Nmap · Burp Suite · SQLMap

Identify weaknesses in a deliberately vulnerable application and validate findings within the permitted scope.

Portfolio output: Assessment report with evidence, risk priorities and remediation steps.

Harden a basic AWS environment

AWS IAM · VPC · S3

Review access permissions, network boundaries and storage settings for a sample cloud workload.

Portfolio output: Cloud architecture diagram and a security-hardening checklist.

Investigate suspicious network traffic

Wireshark · Linux · AI-assisted analysis

Review sample packet captures, explain suspicious activity and independently validate AI-assisted observations.

Portfolio output: Incident timeline, analysis notes and recommended defensive actions.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do I need any prior knowledge to join?

No. The program starts from networking basics (CCNA) and builds up to ethical hacking and cloud security step by step.

Is this three separate courses or one program?

One integrated program. You learn full CCNA networking first, then full CEH v13 ethical hacking, then AWS cloud basics — because real cybersecurity needs all three.

Will I get hands-on with hacking tools?

Yes — 40+ tools including Kali Linux, Nmap, Metasploit, Burp Suite, Wireshark, Nessus, SQLMap and Aircrack-ng, all in guided labs.

Which certifications does this prepare me for?

The content aligns with Cisco CCNA 200-301 and CEH v13 exam objectives, plus AWS Cloud Practitioner fundamentals. This is Network Rhinos training, not an official EC-Council certification. Exam registration and official credentials are separate.

What is the Advanced Cybersecurity course fee?

The three-month course costs ₹30,000, discounted from ₹45,000. Contact our team to confirm batch availability and what is included before registering.

Is the CCSOE brochure the syllabus for this course?

No. This page describes the three-month CCNA + CEH v13-aligned + AWS basics course. The CCSOE download describes a separate six-month Cyber Security Operations Engineer program with 300+ instructor-led hours and 200+ hands-on lab hours. Ask our team for its fee and batch details.
