The ISCS-100 is INSAIG's introductory Cybersecurity certification, designed for IT professionals, developers, and analysts who want to build a solid foundation in information security. The course covers the entire defensive security spectrum — from network fundamentals and cryptography to modern threat landscapes, vulnerability management, and incident response. You will learn how attackers think using the MITRE ATT&CK framework, how to analyze network traffic with tools like Wireshark and Nmap, how cryptographic protocols protect data in transit and at rest, and how organizations build security programs aligned with NIST and ISO 27001. Through hands-on exercises, real-world case studies from major breaches, and practice simulations, you will develop the analytical mindset required to protect modern infrastructure. The certification exam is 100% online, proctored in real time, and covers all 6 modules. The credential is valid permanently and includes a verifiable digital badge for LinkedIn via Credly.
