10 Cybersecurity courses: Offense, Defense, GRC, AI and more.
I found a repository of Cyber Security courses where you can get a ton of training and a certificate. Courses cover Offense, Defense, GRC, Fundamentals, Networking, Advanced Networking, AI and more.
I burnt up a ton of PTO over the holidays and spent time looking for some AI courses that I could take. I really want to dive deeper into AI, so I signed up for a few courses. In the meantime I ran across these classes.
→ Cybersecurity Attack and Defense Fundamentals
→ IT Fundamentals for Cybersecurity
→ Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals
→ IBM Generative AI for Cybersecurity Professionals
→ Cybersecurity Compliance Framework, Standards & Regulations
I also found a ton more, which I'll share in a future post. You can either signup for each class individually, or you can get a subscription and have access to all of them (that's what I did).
This is the first full week of 2025. If you want this year to be the one that lands you a job, then you have to stay sharp. Knowledge is power.
Keep learning.

What is our methodology? It's simple:
1️⃣ It's $9/month to be part of the CTR program, which includes all of the above. Yes, there is a cost, but it's literally less than I paid for my wife's Starbuck's coffee and egg sandwich this morning. Our goal was to make this affordable to nearly everyone.
2️⃣ Leveraging our connections, network, and newsletters, which received over 16 Million views in the last year, your profile has the opportunity to be seen by a wide range of hiring decision makers including team leads, managers, directors, CISOs, CIOs, CEOs, and HR Managers.
3️⃣ We will allow free access to the CTR, not charging to access it. Because of this, any company that is looking to fill a position can utilize it.
4️⃣ The Cyber Talent Registry will list the following for you: Job Desired, Certifications/Degree, Years of experience, a place for you to introduce yourself, skills that you have, availability, salary range expectations, and a link to your LinkedIn profile. Your name, phone number, and email address will NOT be on the list because our goal is to help you gain traffic to your LinkedIn profile, so you can truly represent yourself properly. This also prevents spamming.
5️⃣ While you are on the list, you get the following: Curated Jobs emailed to you weekly, a monthly live group call to learn how to accelerate your career, weekly career and job search guidance emailed to you, and your profile having exposure to tens of thousands of people who are involve in hiring.

Our goal is simple. It's to offer you visibility. For years, I have mentored people to teach them how to build a great LinkedIn profile, how to engage, build connections and even teach them a posting strategy. However, most people just don't have the time, so we're leveraging the networks that we have already built to help you gain the visibility.
The Cyber Talent Registry (CTR) is limited to 1,000 people.
We are excited to roll this out in phases. At this time, our offering is only open to 1,000 people. This keeps our list clean, controllable, and allows us to prepare for Phase 2 early next year. The time between Phase 1 and 2 will allow us to develop an even better platform for some other exciting things we are doing.
People have skills, experience, degrees, certifications, and knowledge. However, they lack the visibility they need. Our goal is to help you gain visibility for less than you'll pay for your next lunch. It's as simple as that.
These spots will fill up fast, join today.
