From Ethical Hacking to Risk Management: How to Choose the Right Cybersecurity Course in South Africa

Articles /

A cybersecurity course can prepare students to protect the systems, software, networks and data modern organisations depend on, but cybersecurity extends well beyond ethical hacking. The field includes network and cloud security, secure software development, vulnerability assessment, incident response, governance, risk and compliance. In South Africa, demand for specialised cybersecurity skills is significant, with a 2024 CSIR survey reporting that 63% of surveyed cybersecurity positions were partially or fully unfilled. For prospective students, the right pathway depends on their existing IT knowledge, preferred type of work and longer-term career ambitions. Belgium Campus iTversity offers several routes into the field, from a dedicated Security specialisation in its Diploma in Information Technology to advanced technical, risk-management and research pathways.

Why SA schools must embrace technology and active learning

Technology has long played a part in education. The chalkboard appeared in 1890, the pencil became widespread a decade later, followed by radio a century ago, the overhead projector in 1930 and the photocopier in the late 1960s. The computer arrived in the 1980s and mobile devices have since made it possible for learners to access content anytime, anywhere.
Covid-19 moved everything online almost overnight. Technologies that might have taken years to adopt became mainstream in months, normalising digital learning for teachers and students.
It was not a perfect system, as many children were left behind due to unequal access to technology, and the solutions implemented as part of lockdown were not systems that were designed to teach foundational skills remotely. But it challenged the production-line model of learning. Students had to manage their own schedules, learn independently, find information themselves and develop digital skills. And then most of them went back to sitting in rows.
