Cyber Security Traineeship

Obtain an accredited national qualification and be part of the in-demand cyber security space with 1300apprentice.

With cyber crime costing the Australian economy about $3.5 billion a year (reported by Flinders University), comprehensive cyber security solutions have developed to become an integral part of protecting businesses and ensuring employees aren’t at risk from potential cyber threats. According to Cyber GOV Australia, it is estimated that roughly 2.8 million Australians are impacted by this type of attack every year, with nearly 6.7 million Australian adults being past victims.
