Revolutionising Cybersecurity Education With Real-World Experience
Harness Projects is dedicated to revolutionising education by providing students with real-world experience that makes them job-ready from day one. To extend this vision, Intrix Cyber Security recently partnered with Harness Projects, marking a significant milestone in our mission to train the next generation of cyber defenders. Together, we have developed a groundbreaking curriculum that integrates real-world projects and Cybersecurity training, offering hands-on learning from the very start.
“At Harness Projects, our commitment is to deliver a world-class learning experience driven by what the industry demands in cyber talent. Partnering with Intrix Cyber Security was a natural choice to help us achieve this goal,” said Chris Ventura, CEO of Harness Projects.
A New Approach to Cybersecurity Education
The inspiration behind this groundbreaking curriculum stems from our shared commitment to address the rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape. Cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and traditional classroom-based education often falls short in preparing students for real-world challenges. We recognised the need for a course that bridges this gap by providing students with direct exposure to live projects and real clients.
Real-World Projects with Leading Companies
One of the standout features of the Harness cybersecurity course is the opportunity for students to work on live projects with leading companies. This hands-on experience is invaluable, allowing students to tackle real cybersecurity challenges and understand the practical implications of their work. By collaborating with industry partners such as Intrix, Harness Projects ensure that their students are exposed to the latest tools, techniques, and threats in the cybersecurity field.
Harness’ projects cover a wide range of cybersecurity domains, including infrastructure vulnerability assessments, web application vulnerability assessments, evidence-based risk assessments, and incident response simulations. Each project is designed to provide comprehensive training and build a robust portfolio that showcases the student’s skills and experience.
Expertise from Industry Leaders
Intrix Cyber Security brings its extensive expertise and insights to this collaboration, enriching Harness Projects’ curriculum with real-world relevance. To build upon this knowledge, Harness’ team of seasoned experts, who have extensive experience in various cybersecurity domains, play a crucial role in mentoring our students. By sharing their knowledge and providing personalised feedback, they help shape the next generation of cybersecurity professionals.
Harness Projects understands what hiring managers look for in great cyber talent, and they have incorporated these insights into the course. By focusing on both technical skills and soft skills, we have worked to prepare students to meet the real-world needs of cybersecurity roles. Harness’ seasoned mentors guide students through the projects, providing personalised feedback and support to ensure their success.
