Our method

## Installing security tools is easy. Stopping an attack isn’t.

Any organisation can buy a firewall, an antivirus and a monitoring tool. The real challenge starts when someone gets in: forgotten admin accounts, alerts nobody reads, backups that were never tested, and attackers moving quietly from one server to the next.   
 Most cybersecurity training still starts with the attack: hacking tools and tricks. But you can’t defend an infrastructure you’ve never built, and you can’t fix what you haven’t assessed first.

What You'll Master

## Every layer of cyber defence

Move into a role where you don’t just react to alerts: you build the infrastructure, find its weak spots and stop attacks before they spread.

![Red check icon](https://info.lewagon.com/hubfs/icons/icons-v5/check-red.svg)

##### Protect

Design networks where one infected device can’t reach the rest, behind firewalls and secure connections for remote staff.

![Red check icon](https://info.lewagon.com/hubfs/icons/icons-v5/check-red.svg)

##### Harden

Lock down servers and user accounts so everyone gets the access they need, and attackers can’t climb their way to admin rights.

![Red check icon](https://info.lewagon.com/hubfs/icons/icons-v5/check-red.svg)

##### Recover

Keep services running on-premise and in the cloud, spot problems before users do, and make sure backups really restore after an attack.

![Red check icon](https://info.lewagon.com/hubfs/icons/icons-v5/check-red.svg)

##### Assess

Audit what’s already there, rank risks by real impact and turn regulations into security rules people actually follow.

![Red check icon](https://info.lewagon.com/hubfs/icons/icons-v5/check-red.svg)

##### Respond

Watch every system from one place, write rules that catch attackers, and lead the response when an incident hits.

40h

### Get ready to start on solid ground

Start the bootcamp on solid ground. At your own pace, you’ll learn how devices find and talk to each other on a network (IP addresses, DNS, DHCP), how to work in the Linux command line, and how to read technical documentation in English.

What you will do in practice:

- 40 hours of online tutorials
- Utilize curated resources from Le Wagon to gain solid foundations

![Linux](https://info.lewagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/tools-v5/Linux.jpeg?width=28&height=28&name=Linux.jpeg) Linux

![Windows](https://info.lewagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/tools-v5/Wslogo.png?width=28&height=28&name=Wslogo.png) Windows

8h

### See how an organisation’s IT fits together

Before protecting anything, you’ll see the whole picture. You’ll learn how a company’s IT is built, layer by layer, from cables and servers up to the applications people use, and who does what in an IT team. You’ll meet the organisation you’ll work on throughout the bootcamp: it has just been hit by ransomware and needs rebuilding.

What You'll Build

- A map of the organisation’s IT, layer by layer
- Your personal lab, ready for hands-on practice
- A regulatory fact sheet for your country and a threat watch routine

![Git](https://info.lewagon.com/hubfs/tools-v5/icon-git.svg) Git

40h

### Design and protect a company network

Every attack travels through the network. You’ll learn how data moves from one computer to another, then split the network into zones so that one infected device can’t reach the rest. You’ll set up a professional firewall to control what comes in and goes out, and see how the same rules translate to other leading brands. Finally, you’ll give remote staff a secure way in and learn to read network traffic to spot an attack.

What You'll Build

- A multi-site network that keeps running when a link fails
- A firewall policy with web filtering and intrusion prevention
- Secure remote access protected by multi-factor authentication

40h

### Secure systems, manage identities and automate with code

Most serious attacks end with someone taking over an admin account. You’ll install and secure Windows and Linux servers, and organise who can access what in Active Directory, the system that manages every user account in a company. Before fixing anything, you’ll audit an inherited setup the way an expert would, uncovering the paths an attacker could take from one stolen account to full control. Then you’ll extend accounts to the cloud with multi-factor authentication and write small scripts, with AI’s help, to automate everyday tasks.

What You'll Build

- One clean, secured user directory merged from three old ones
- An audit-based action plan that ranks what to fix first
- Scripts that create accounts in bulk and flag unused ones

40h

### Keep services running, on-site and in the cloud

When a server fails or ransomware strikes, services have to stay up. You’ll set up a group of servers that take over automatically when one breaks down, move workloads to Microsoft Azure and back without letting costs drift, and package an application into containers. You’ll also review platforms left badly configured and check that an attacker couldn’t reach your backups, and that those backups actually restore, against the clock.

What You'll Build

- A three-server cluster with automatic failover
- A cloud environment with access controls and budget alerts
- A backup strategy, tested with a timed restore

40h

### Run the infrastructure day to day

IT teams need to know what they own, what’s broken and what’s about to break. You’ll set up a service desk to track every device and incident, monitoring that warns you before users notice a problem, and a central place where every system sends its activity logs. You’ll also use these tools to spot security red flags: outdated systems, missing antivirus, a sudden spike in failed logins.

What You'll Build

- A service desk with a device inventory and a security compliance dashboard
- Monitoring dashboards that alert on outages and unusual behaviour
- A handover file and a timed disaster recovery test

![Zabbix](https://info.lewagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/tools-v5/Zabbix.png?width=28&height=28&name=Zabbix.png) Zabbix

![Prometheus](https://info.lewagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/tools-v5/prometheus.png?width=28&height=28&name=prometheus.png) Prometheus

40h

### Measure risks and set the security rules

Security starts with knowing where you’re exposed. You’ll run an authorised audit to scan systems for weaknesses. Next, you’ll review an old security policy, find what it misses, and rewrite it to meet regulations: French and European by default, or your own country’s. You’ll harden servers to match, and finish by running a short awareness session, because rules only work if people follow them.

What you will do in practice:

- An audit report with vulnerabilities ranked by severity
- A risk map and a rewritten security policy chapter

![Metasploit](https://info.lewagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/tools-v5/Metasploit.png?width=28&height=28&name=Metasploit.png) Metasploit

32h

### Detect attacks and lead the response

This is where you take the defender’s seat. You’ll set up a SIEM, the platform that collects activity from every system and flags anything suspicious. You’ll write your own rules to catch attackers and test them against a simulated attack. Then comes the crisis drill: you’ll have minutes to understand what’s happening, isolate the infected machine, protect the evidence and alert the authorities. You’ll finish by reviewing what went wrong and turning every lesson into stronger defences.

What you will do in practice:

- A working SIEM connected to the organisation’s critical servers
- Detection rules tested against real attack techniques
- A ransomware response playbook, tested in a timed crisis simulation

![Wazuh](https://info.lewagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/tools-v5/Wazuh.png?width=28&height=28&name=Wazuh.png) Wazuh

40h

### Recommend a solution and take it to production

Now you think like the person who decides. You’ll read a project brief, compare two technical options side by side on cost, security and risk over three years, and present your recommendation to a mock steering committee ready to challenge you. Once your plan is approved, you’ll schedule the go-live, automate deployment with code and hand everything over to the team that will run it.

What you will do in practice:

- A side-by-side comparison and a three-year cost model
- A design file and a 15-minute pitch to decision-makers
- Automated deployment code and tested recovery procedures

80h

### Capstone project

Time to put it all together. In teams of two or three, you’ll choose a scenario: rebuild user accounts and workstations, set up a SOC, or migrate the virtualisation platform. You’ll deliver it from start to finish. Instructors and teaching assistants are there when you’re stuck, but you make the calls. It all ends with Demo Day, a celebration where every team shows off what they’ve built. 🎉

What you'll do in practice

- A complete team project, from scoping to delivery
- A project file and presentation deck
- Your Demo Day showcase
