At Computek College, I learned cybersecurity and am ready to defend the digital realm! My time there was a whirlwind of learning and hands-on experience, equipping me with the skills to navigate the ever-evolving world of cybersecurity.

Here's a glimpse into my journey:

Focus on technical skills.

• Ethical Hacking: I learned the art of thinking like a hacker, exploring vulnerabilities, and testing security measures to strengthen defenses.
• Network Security: I delved into the intricacies of network security, understanding how to protect networks from intrusions and data breaches.
• Malware Analysis: Engaged in malware analysis projects, learning to dissect and understand various types of malware, which improved my ability to create effective countermeasures.
• Server Installation and Configuration: Learned to install and configure Windows Server, including roles such as Active Directory, DNS, and DHCP, enabling efficient management of network resources.
• Security in the Cloud: Focused on best practices for securing cloud environments, including identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and compliance with regulations.
• Cisco Networking Fundamentals: Gained a comprehensive understanding of Cisco networking concepts, including IP addressing, routing protocols (such as OSPF and EIGRP), and switching technologies.
• Network Configuration: Learned to configure Cisco routers and switches, setting up VLANs, inter-VLAN routing, and basic network services, enabling seamless communication across devices.

Team Projects: I worked with fellow cybersecurity enthusiasts on projects, simulating real-world scenarios, and learning to work effectively as a team.
Security Awareness Training: I learn how to train others on best practices in cybersecurity and shape the security-conscious culture among people.
