Learning path

Pre Security (Legacy)

The original Pre Security path covered cyber security basics, networking, web technologies, and deep-dive Linux and Windows fundamentals. The new version is a major upgrade that starts earlier, teaching you how computers work from the inside out, and goes further with new modules on software fundamentals, introductory coding, and real-world attacks and defences. If you've already started or completed this path, your progress on shared modules is preserved. We encourage you to enrol in the updated Pre Security path for the best experience.
