Q/CND® Qualified/ Cyber Network Defense Professional Certificate Program of Mastery
(Linux, IDS I, II, III, Q/CND, Security+, CASP or CISSP + 1 Elective) CPoM

SU's Q/CND Qualified/ Cyber Network Defense and Offensive missions are threaded into the Network Cyber Defense Training classes. The mission is to master defensive scenarios to protect your networks from the hacker. This training is for those who seek qualified cyber network defense, cy ops and threat attack careers. The Q/CND Certificate Program of Mastery Program is an accredited program with related cyber micro credentials. 

SU training techniques are a perfect match for our military cyber defense workforce goals and cyber operations since they not only train the relevant concepts of cyber defense and its CND specialties but also in the case of Q|SA and Q|PTL courses challenge the students to apply those concepts in a tactical mastery level setting that an actual security analyst or penetration tester might see. SU also provides advanced training paths in topics such as network defense, penetration testing, exploitation, digital forensics, and software security that is tailored to the trainee's long‐term skills acquisition goals. The instruction is provided by proven leaders in the field and guarantees graduates have the immediately applicable skills to be relevant in the cyber fight. In my experience, few practitioners can apply the skills gained in a traditional immersion course into the workforce. Instructors have led, trained, and worked alongside with cyber professionals who have earned numerous industry certifications. However, it has been shown time and again that these certifications provide mere exposure without the critical analysis and creative thinking required to solve tough problems in our evolving cyberspace. SU addresses this shortcoming with their mastery level training model and apprenticeship.

NON-STANDARD TERM DEFENITION SU classes are non-standard term [shorter than a standard quarter or semester]. The number of hours a student attends class is measured. Students enroll in a 520 hour program of 10 classes and 3 practical’s. Students should complete 2-3 classes each year in years 1-3, and complete at least one class in years 4-7.

STUDENT ENTRANCE REQUIREMENT - In order to be admitted as a student at Security University, a student must demonstrate sufficient knowledge of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). TCP/IP is the language a computer uses to access the Internet. It consists of a suite of protocols designed to establish a network to provide a computer with access to the Internet. TCP/IP defines the details of how data is sent and received through networks. Sufficient knowledge of TCP/IP is essential for students to understand and address the coursework at SU. While 2 months of experience on your resume helps, there is no exact amount of time period of employment with TCP/IP required. The President of Security University and/or any board member designated by the President shall determine prior to class whether or not a student has sufficient knowledge of TCP/IP in order to be admitted into SU. The primary purpose is whether a student has the necessary foundation to succeed in the coursework offered at SU. All decisions made by the President or any board designated by the President are final.
