The course was created to give us the skills needed for today’s rapidly changing cybersecurity field. We covered basic topics like Linux systems, Networks, and Penetration Testing, blending theory with practical exercises. The week ended with a Capture The Flag (CTF) competition, where we put everything we learned into practice. 

We also had the chance to meet security professionals  who have been in the field for over 10 years. They shared their knowledge and experience with us. They taught us about real-world cybersecurity challenges and how to protect web applications and find weaknesses in systems. Their advice helped us understand what we need to know for future jobs. 

The bootcamp was from 29th July 2024 - 2nd August 2024

My team won 1st place in the CTF competition and received a 35% scholarship for the university.
