In the heart of Nigeria’s capital, the digital battlefield is evolving. As government agencies, financial institutions, and global NGOs in Abuja face increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, the call for “Cyber-Guardians” has never been louder. At SOUTECH Ventures Academy, located in Garki Area 1, we don’t just teach you how to use tools—we forge you into an elite security operative.
Our Ethical Hacking & Offensive Security Masterclass is a rigorous, 10-module odyssey aligned with the prestigious Cisco Ethical Hacker curriculum. Whether you are joining us physically at our Abuja HQ or via our interactive remote portal, you are stepping into a world of high-stakes problem-solving.
The SOUTECH Edge: From Theory to Tactical Execution
We believe that a cybersecurity expert who only reads books is a liability. That’s why our training is built around 20+ Tactical Hands-on Labs. You won’t just hear about threats; you will sit in the driver’s seat of a Kali Linux machine and execute the same methodologies used by the world’s top penetration testers.
Your 10-Module Tactical Roadmap
-
The Hacker’s Mindset & Legal Boundaries: Understand the “Grey” areas. We dive into the Nigeria Cybercrimes Act (2015) and international laws to ensure your skills are used for the greater good.
-
Digital Footprinting: Learn the art of “Invisible Reconnaissance.” Use OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) to map a target’s entire digital presence without leaving a trace.
-
Network Infiltration & Scanning: Master Nmap and specialized Cisco scanning techniques to find live targets and vulnerable services within complex infrastructures.
-
Advanced Enumeration: Go deep. Extract hidden usernames, network shares, and service details that others miss.
-
Vulnerability Triage: Use Nessus and professional-grade scanners to rank risks. Learn which “holes” to plug first to save a multi-billion Naira enterprise.
-
The Art of the Exploit (System Hacking): Hands-on practice with Metasploit. Learn privilege escalation—how to move from a “guest” user to a “System Admin” in minutes.
-
Malware Anatomy: Analyze the code behind Ransomware and Trojans. Learn how they bypass Antivirus and how you can stop them.
-
The Human Firewall (Social Engineering): Understand why the smartest tech can be defeated by a single phone call or phishing email.
-
Service Disruption (DoS) & Hijacking: Learn how attackers take down government portals and how to build resilient, un-hackable infrastructures.
-
Web & Wireless Warfare: Secure the most vulnerable points—WiFi networks and Web Applications. Master SQL Injection and XSS defense.
