The Academy.

Practitioner-led, lab-based cybersecurity training. Our new Web Application Security & Penetration Testing course is now open for the founding batch — twelve modules, real labs, and a portfolio you can show an employer. Taught by a working analyst, not a full-time trainer.

Every attack, its fix
You learn to break it and to defend it.

Most courses only teach the attack. Every module here pairs it with the fix a developer would apply — the skill employers actually hire for.

Web Application Security & Penetration Testing.

Twelve modules, from your first intercepted request to a full penetration test report. Every module is built around labs you do yourself — and, unlike most courses, every attack is paired with the fix a developer would actually apply.

Flagship course

Web Application Security & Penetration Testing

For students, freshers and working professionals who want a real, hire-able skill — the ability to find web vulnerabilities, explain their impact, and write them up the way a professional does.

Duration12 weeks · 12 modules
FormatRecorded + weekly live doubt session
PrerequisitesNone — starts at how the web works
LabsPortSwigger, DVWA, Juice Shop

What you will be able to do at the end

  • Set up Burp Suite and map an application's full attack surface
  • Find and prove authentication, access-control and IDOR flaws
  • Exploit SQL injection and XSS by hand — then explain the fix
  • Test APIs and spot business-logic flaws that scanners miss
  • Write a complete penetration test report you can show an employer
Two ways to take it

Self-paced or mentored

Same twelve modules and the same labs. The difference is how much support you want alongside them.

Self-pacedRecordings, labs, community, certificate
MentoredAdds live doubt sessions
MentoredAdds personal report review
MentoredAdds interview prep

Both tracks include

  • All twelve recorded modules, lifetime access
  • Every lab guide and setup walkthrough
  • A private learner community
  • A completion certificate you can verify

Also in development — the 90-Day Cyber Security Analyst Program

Our full seven-phase analyst programme, covering SOC operations, SIEM, blue-team and VAPT, is being rebuilt and will return as a separate enrolment. If that is the route you want, tell us and we will let you know when it opens.

Every single evening

What two hours actually looks like.

The shape does not change. That is deliberate — you always know what is coming, and no session ends without you having done something.

1

Concept

Twenty minutes on the idea, and where it sits in real work. No slides read aloud.

2

Terminal

You open your own lab and do it. Badly first, then correctly. That is the part that sticks.

3

Deliverable

You write it up — a finding, a map, a short report. This becomes your portfolio.

4

Feedback

Written comments on what was right, what was not, and why. Before the next session.

Practice quizzes

Find out what you actually know.

Thirty questions across five topics, taken from the same material our students work through. Every answer comes with an explanation — getting it wrong is the point. Free, no sign-up, nothing stored.

Certification

You have to pass an exam. A real one.

Completing the programme is not the same as being certified. Certification requires passing a supervised examination — four and a half hours, watched live, with half the marks on practical work. Most training providers hand out a certificate for attendance. We do not.

Practical weighting
%
of the marks are hands-on.

Investigate a log, analyse email headers, assess a web application by hand, rate what you find. Multiple choice is only 30%.

4.5
hours, supervised

Live on video, full screen share, ID checked.

3
Attempts included

First attempt plus two re-attempts, no extra charge.

How the examination is built

Part A · Knowledge50 MCQ · 30% · pass 60%
Part B · Practical4 lab tasks · 50% · pass 60%
Part C · ReportingWritten report · 20% · pass 50%
OverallPass mark 70%

Every part must be passed on its own

A strong multiple-choice score cannot carry a failed practical. Each part has its own minimum, and all of them must be met before the overall mark is even considered. That is what makes the certificate mean something.

If you do not pass

  • You re-take only the part you failed — passes carry forward
  • Two further attempts, at no additional charge
  • 14 days before the second, 30 before the third — so you have time to work on the gap
  • You always receive specific written feedback on what to fix

How it is supervised

Live over video, by the examiner, for the whole sitting — webcam and full screen share on throughout, identity checked against photo ID, room scan before the clock starts. The session is recorded, kept for 90 days for appeals only, then deleted.

Documentation and man pages are allowed during the practical, because they are allowed in the job. Search engines and AI assistants are not, because we are measuring what you can do rather than what you can look up.

What the certificate is

It confirms that you passed this examination on that date, and states your scores. It is issued by a private company.

It is not a government licence and not a credential from a certification body such as CompTIA, EC-Council or ISC². We print that on the certificate itself, because a certificate that overclaims helps nobody in an interview.

Why this course

Built to get you hired, not just certified.

Three things set this course apart from the recorded courses you will find everywhere else.

Every attack has its fix

You do not just learn to break an application. Every module pairs the attack with the remediation a developer would apply — the skill that makes you employable, not just dangerous.

You build a real portfolio

Twelve written findings and a full penetration test report by the end. When an interviewer asks what you can do, you show the work — you do not just describe it.

World-class labs, no extra cost

Mapped to PortSwigger Web Security Academy, DVWA and OWASP Juice Shop — the same platforms professionals train on, all free. You practise on real, deliberately vulnerable targets.

What you finish with

  • Twelve module writeups, one finding at a time
  • A complete penetration test report you can show an employer
  • A verifiable SpiderX Defense completion certificate
  • The confidence to sit a junior AppSec or VAPT interview

On outcomes — said plainly

This course builds a real, demonstrable skill and the evidence to prove it. It does not guarantee a job — that depends on you, the employer and the market. Any provider promising placement is not being straight with you.

Being straight with you

What this does, and what it does not.

Cybersecurity training in India is sold with a lot of promises. We would rather you enrol knowing exactly what you are buying.

What it does

  • Builds practical skill you can demonstrate at a terminal
  • Produces written work an employer can assess
  • Gives you honest feedback on where you actually stand

What it does not

  • Guarantee a job, a salary or a placement — that depends on you, the employer and the market
  • Replace a certification from CompTIA, EC-Council or a similar body
  • Make you job-ready in ninety days if you skip the lab work

About our certificate

It confirms the programme you completed, the hours, and your assessment results. It is issued by a private company. It is not a government licence and not a credential from a certification body — and we state that on the certificate itself, because a certificate that overclaims helps nobody in an interview.

Be cautious of anyone promising placement

If a training provider guarantees you a job, ask them to put the guarantee and the refund terms in writing before you pay. Most will not. That tells you what the guarantee was worth.

What we do not promise

These programmes build practical skills and portfolio evidence. They do not guarantee a job, a salary or a placement. Our certificate confirms completion, hours and assessment results — it is not a government licence and not a credential from a certification body.
