CTF Room is a BIC-Partner.
Africa tells a different story when it comes to professional training in cybersecurity. Our objective is to not only offer quality and affordable training to individuals in cybersecurity, but also show that Africa has a tremendous talent pool. The average cost of training a cybersecurity professional has been approximated at between $1,000 - $30,000. For a continent where such figures are astronomical, many dreams of potential disruptive innovations in this space have been shelved. We are changing this, one vault at a time.
