What is the Cyber Defense Certified Professional Accreditation?

The Cyber Defense Certified Professional accreditation is a practical application of the knowledge, tools, techniques, and procedures acquired through the Cyber Defense Analyst course.

The Cyber Defense Certified Professional is filling a gap in cyber defense certification for both the hard and soft skills that are required and in high demand within the cyber community.

This is accomplished through a battery of real-world security operations scenarios that students must overcome and articulate in a detailed report that includes the appropriate executive summary, findings, recommendations and remediation steps along with applicable evidence.

This course is designed to provide a practical and real-world experience for students.

The objective is to empower students with realistic and applicable skills that can be applied on the job. The bootcamp is fast-paced, high volume and challenging.

Holders of a Cyber Defense Certified Professional certificate have demonstrated the knowledge, skills, and practical application to work within a security operations team.

Andrew Henry Cyber Defense Analyst Bootcamp Graduate

I have done a lot of research and I just haven't found any other certification or course that teaches all the little nuances that Level Effect does.

Christopher BlasCyber Defense Analyst Bootcamp Graduate

The LE staff have a special blend of entertainment, education and true expertise that made it fun to learn in-depth cyber concepts remotely. I initially had my doubts about a virtual course with this time line but I quickly found the pace and unique set up convenient and engaging.

Greg MCyber Defense Analyst Bootcamp Graduate

The pricing for this course does not do the course justice. What you are getting is a "zero to hero" on how to become a cyber analyst.

Seth Baty Cyber Defense Analyst Bootcamp Graduate

The construct of Level Effect's Cyber Defense Analyst (CDA) course is absolutely unmatched. I have not come across any other curriculum that demystifies the growing number of cyber roles and titles, and how they unite in a security operation environment.
