Program Overview

ANET's B.Tech in Cybersecurity is a comprehensive four-year program that equips students with the knowledge and skills to protect digital assets in an increasingly connected world. The curriculum covers network security, ethical hacking, cryptography, digital forensics, cloud security, and security architecture โ€” blending theoretical foundations with intensive hands-on lab work.

Students train in our dedicated Cyber Range facility, participating in capture-the-flag competitions, penetration testing exercises, and real-world incident response simulations. The program emphasizes both defensive (blue team) and offensive (red team) security methodologies, ensuring graduates are versatile professionals ready for any security challenge.

Industry partnerships with leading cybersecurity firms, government agencies, and financial institutions provide internship opportunities and exposure to cutting-edge security operations centers (SOCs). Graduates are prepared for globally recognized certifications including CEH, CISSP, OSCP, and CompTIA Security+.

Duration: 4 Years | Eligibility: 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry & Mathematics | Intake: 60 Seats
