About Cyber Security Academy
Cyber Security Academy is a cyber security training institute in Kukatpally, Hyderabad. We run nine specialist programmes — from a beginner course for students straight out of 12th, through SOC operations, ethical hacking and penetration testing, to digital forensics. Every batch is taught live by a named trainer, built around hands-on labs, and published in full on this site so you can compare it with anyone else before you pay.

A cyber security institute built around labs, not slides
What we do, how we teach it, and what we deliberately do not claim.
Cyber Security Academy trains people in Hyderabad for jobs in security operations, offensive testing and digital forensics. We are a specialist institute — cyber security is all we teach, which is why the syllabuses go deeper than a general IT training centre can afford to.
Every programme runs for three months, is taught live by Mr. Praveen K, and is built around lab work with more than twenty security tools. Classroom batches run at our Kukatpally centre. Live online batches follow the same syllabus with the same trainer, with daily recordings for revision.
We publish every syllabus in full on this site, module by module, so you can compare it against any other institute before you pay. We also publish our fees. Both of those are deliberate.

Specialist, not general
Cyber security is the only subject we teach. That is why a SOC syllabus here runs to fourteen modules rather than one overview session.
— Nine programmesTaught live, by a named trainer
You can look him up before you enrol. Recordings exist as a catch-up for missed classes, not as the course itself.
— Mr. Praveen KLabs from the first weeks
More than twenty tools, used rather than demonstrated, with lab access outside class hours.
— 20+ toolsSyllabuses published in full
Every module of every course is on this site. Compare us module by module with anyone. Institutes that hide the syllabus usually have a reason.
— All nine coursesFees published
₹9,999 recorded, ₹25,000 online, ₹32,000 classroom. No “contact us for pricing” games, and EMI is available.
— Published openlyReal projects, not exercises
Every programme ends in documented project work — investigations, assessments or reports you can walk an interviewer through.
— Portfolio outputBeginners genuinely welcome
Fundamentals come before tools in every syllabus. Non-technical learners are not left behind in week three.
— No prerequisitesHonest certification advice
We will tell you when an expensive certification is not worth its price at your stage, even though selling it would be easier.
— Stage-appropriateSupport after class
A batch WhatsApp group that stays active, doubt-clearing sessions between classes and one-to-one career mentorship.

What we do not claim
Training institute marketing has a credibility problem. Here is where we draw the line.
No placement percentage
You will not find "100% placement" anywhere on this site. No institute can evidence that figure, and we would rather describe exactly what our placement support does than quote a number we cannot stand behind.
No salary guarantees
The salary ranges on our course pages are indicative market estimates, labelled as such. They are not offers, and your outcome depends on your work, your interviews and the employer.
No invented testimonials
We point you to our Google Business Profile rather than printing quotes on our own pages. Reviews tied to real accounts are worth more than anything we could write ourselves.
What we do commit to
Live teaching by a named trainer. Full syllabuses published so you can compare before you pay. Published fees. Hands-on lab work with real tools. Documented project work you keep. Resume, LinkedIn, interview preparation and job application support. And an honest answer when a course or a certification is not right for you yet.
Check us out before you enrol
We would rather you verify everything than take our word for it. Here is exactly how.
Sit in on a live class
Book a free demo and watch an actual session — the trainer, the pace, the lab setup and the batch you would join. Nothing is staged for visitors.
Visit the centre
Come to our centre at Nizampet X Roads and see the classroom and the systems for yourself. Students are welcome to bring a parent.

Every module of every course is published on this site. Compare us against any other institute, module by module, before you pay anything.
Ask to see project output
Ask what a finished report or investigation actually looks like. If an institute cannot show you the output, the projects are a line on a brochure.
Ask about lab access
Ask how many hours a day you can reach the lab and on whose infrastructure. Hands-on time is the difference between a certificate and a skill.
Frequently asked questions
The twenty questions counsellors are asked most often, answered plainly.
Where is Cyber Security Academy located?
Our centre is at 3rd Floor, Metro Station, Metro Pillar No: A689, Dr Atmaram Estates, Nizampet X Roads, near Jntu, beside Sri Bhramaramba Theatre, Hyderabad, Telangana 500085 — next to JNTU College metro station and close to KPHB. Learners travel from KPHB, JNTU, Ameerpet, Madhapur, Hitech City and Gachibowli.
What courses do you offer?
Nine specialist programmes: Cyber Security, Ethical Hacking, SOC Analyst, Penetration Testing, Network Security, Web Application Security, Bug Bounty, Cyber Security After 12th and Cyber Crime Investigation with Digital Forensics. Corporate training is available separately.
Who is the trainer?
Mr. Praveen K leads the training, with 10+ years of industry experience across security operations, ethical hacking, VAPT, incident response and forensics. Every batch is taught live by a named trainer, not by a rotating pool.
Do you offer classroom or online training?
Both, plus a recorded video course. Classroom batches run at our Kukatpally centre. Live online batches follow the same syllabus with the same trainer and include daily recordings. The recorded course is self-paced with lifetime access.
What are the fees?
Classroom training is ₹32,000, live online is ₹25,000 and the recorded video course is ₹9,999. Corporate training is quoted separately. EMI and two-instalment payment options are available.
How long are the courses?
Three months for the classroom and live online programmes, with weekday and weekend batch options so you can study alongside work or a degree. The recorded course is self-paced.
Do I need a technical background to join?
No. Every programme starts from fundamentals — networking, operating systems and how the web works — before any security tool is introduced. Students, IT support engineers, testers, developers and career switchers all start from the same point.
Do you provide placement assistance?
Yes: resume preparation, LinkedIn profile support, technical interview preparation, mock interviews and job application support. We do not guarantee placement, and we would be cautious of any institute that does.
Do you guarantee a job?
No. We do not guarantee placement or any salary outcome. What we provide is job-oriented training, real project work as a portfolio, interview preparation and placement assistance. The hiring decision belongs to the employer.
Do you provide an internship?
An internship certificate is included with the classroom programme, based on the capstone project work you complete during the course.
Can I attend a demo before paying?
Yes, and we would prefer you did. Book a free demo class and sit in on a real session — the trainer, the pace, the lab setup and the batch you would actually join.
Do you offer corporate training?
Yes. Customised programmes for company teams, delivered on site or online, with content tailored to the tools and environment your team actually runs. Contact us for a scope and quote.
Do you provide course materials?
Yes. Recorded sessions, learning materials through the LMS, lab access and a WhatsApp support group for your batch that stays active after the course ends.
Which certifications do you prepare students for?
Depending on the programme: ISC2 CC and CompTIA Security+ for foundations, Microsoft SC-200 for security operations, CEH and eJPT for offensive paths, and CHFI or GIAC credentials for forensics. We give honest advice about which are worth their price at your stage.
Are the labs hands-on?
Yes. Every programme is built around lab work with more than twenty security tools, and lab access is available outside class hours. Tools are used, not demonstrated on a slide.
What makes you different from other institutes in Hyderabad?
Three things you can check before paying: a named trainer you can look up, syllabuses published in full on this site so you can compare module by module, and no placement percentage or salary claims anywhere on our pages.
Can I switch between online and classroom?
Speak to a counsellor. Where batch schedules allow, we try to accommodate a change of mode, particularly if your circumstances change mid-course.
Do you help with career guidance?
Yes. One-to-one mentorship on which path fits your background — SOC, VAPT, network security, forensics or GRC are different careers with different daily work, and picking the wrong one is a common and avoidable mistake.
How do I enrol?
Book a free demo class first. If the course fits, a counsellor will confirm the next batch date, the mode and the payment option. You can call, WhatsApp or use the contact form on this page.
What are your working hours?
Monday to Saturday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Batches run at various times across the day, including weekend batches for working professionals and students.
