The Cyber Security Bootcamp at Real Time Group is comprehensive, professional, and practical. The course is delivered to colleges, government personnel, tech companies, and security organizations in Israel and around the world.
As part of the studies in cybersecurity and information security, we will provide you with practical knowledge on how to defend against attacks and breaches for companies, organizations, government websites, and military systems. Including IoT (Internet of Things) products, SCADA/ICS (Control and Automation) products, servers, and home computing, a SOC (Security Operations Center) Analyst with SIEM (Security Information and Event Management).
The Cyber Security course constitutes preparation for the international CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) exam.
Study Topics for the Cyber Security Program
In the course of this program, you will become familiar with the techniques and tools used by cybersecurity companies and intelligence agencies:
- Quiet/Noisy victim data collection and attack (OSINT — Open Source Intelligence).
- In-depth familiarity with techniques and tools for attacking Windows/Linux operating system servers with various attack techniques (Cyber Attack Infrastructure).
- Weakness testing in servers using penetration attempts — hardware weaknesses, operating system weaknesses, database weaknesses, and target network weaknesses weaknesses (Penetration Testing).
- Forensic investigation, tracking intruder traces upon breach detection in servers (Forensics Investigation).
- Event identification and monitoring — response upon breach detection, solutions to mitigate breach damage (Incident Response).
- Identification of viruses and malicious software (Malware Analysis).
In line with this mission, we have meticulously developed a well-structured study plan that encompasses all the practical, up-to-date, and pertinent knowledge. This plan also strategically allocates ample hours for hands-on practice and coding. Our goal is to provide you with a learning experience that nurtures both understanding and proficiency, ensuring you are well-prepared for the dynamic tech landscape.
Learn Cyber Security at Real Time College
The Cyber and Information Security course consists of 12 practical modules, where students learn Cyber Security in an interactive environment. Starting from acquiring critical thinking processes, analyzing security events and investigations, and culminating in gaining deep knowledge of operating systems, communication networks, and infrastructure services, you will learn how to scan, test, and secure IT systems, including communication networks, servers, databases, and applications. You'll also use Python for application development and BASH for scripting. All of this is accomplished through hands-on exercises on real servers and simulators that identify breaches in real time.
As part of the Cyber course, we teach "Penetration Testing," during which students put themselves in the role of a hacker to understand how they operate. The best way to test server security is to learn how to be a hacker yourself. What actions would you, as a hacker, take to efficiently carry out a breach? Try to identify weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the system.
Upon completing the penetration testing, you will need to fill out an impact report detailing vulnerable points in the system that need strengthening and improvement for the client.
The Cyber course at RT Group includes 6 specializations:
SOC Analyst with SIEM
Cyber Attack Infrastructure
Penetration Testing
Forensics Investigation
Incident Response
Malware
Analysis

"The Toolbox" of Cyber Security and Information Security Studies:
A cybersecurity expert must possess emotional intelligence and psychological abilities to understand how hackers operate, as well as high technological skills. A cyber expert needs an in-depth understanding of the infrastructure, to comprehend how the company's computing system works, and to know its operational methods.
A cybersecurity specialist should possess the toolbox presented before you. By utilizing these tools, the cybersecurity specialist finds solutions for various situations that need to address:
- Preventing Server Penetration (Penetration Testing)
- Identification and Analysis of Malicious Software (Malware Analysis)
- Forensic Investigation
- Incident Response
- SOC (Security Operations Center) Analyst with SIEM (Security Information and Event Management)
- Executing Attacks (Cyber Attack Infrastructure)
All lectures (including those in the classroom) are recorded and available for playback at any time. Throughout the course, emphasis is placed on an innovative and advanced learning experience.
We believe in learning through practical exercises (a lot of practice), and therefore, a portion of the course is dedicated to exercises and projects. All students have access to the information portal on the college's website, which includes additional exercises, videos, and presentations.
The field of cybersecurity can be divided into 4 main domains:
1. Application Security — Protecting privacy and security in various web applications, such as credit card information.
2. Network Security — Securing servers and ensuring the integrity and availability of information.
3. Cloud Security — With the shift to cloud storage, more and more organizations are exposed to attacks in this area.
4. IoT Security — Security of systems in the physical world controlled by computers, such as cameras, sensors, locks, autonomous vehicles, and more.
What are penetration testing tools?
In recent years, there has been a significant rise in cyber attacks that have the capability to disrupt and devastate public organizations on a massive scale. There have been attempts to breach government offices, television channels, and more. These breaches have gained significance in certain situations, not only economically but also politically and nationally. Accordingly, the need for penetration testers to assess cyber threats has increased. Penetration Testing has become an accepted method over time, through which we aim to identify and prevent damage from various cyber threats.
