How Universities Are Falling Behind?

Outdated Curriculum Limits Career Readiness

Universities without cybersecurity courses produce graduates with limited skills in threat detection, ethical hacking, cloud security & modern tools — affecting placements and internships.

Students Lack Cyber Awareness & Skillsets

Without exposure, students fail to learn data protection, preventing phishing/malware attacks, and secure development practices — weakening their employability.

No Ecosystem for Cybersecurity Careers

No CTFs, no industry tie-ups, no global cyber certification guidance leads students to miss out on a booming job market with high salaries & global demand.

Limited Research & Higher Institutional Risk

No research in AI security, blockchain, or cyber warfare. Lack of incident response plans increases vulnerability to ransomware, data breaches & website attacks.

What Students Lack Today in Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity

Lack of Practical Hands-On Skills

Burp Suite, Nmap, Wireshark, Metasploit, SIEM, DFIR — mostly missing

Industry wants: Real skills — not just theory

No Certification Proof

CEH, OSCP, Security+, CySA+, ISO 27001 LA, eJPT missing in most freshers

Industry wants: Minimum 1 certification to prove commitment

Poor Understanding of Real Infrastructure

Active Directory, Cloud, Firewalls, SIEM & Log correlation

Industry wants: Basic enterprise security understanding

Weak Communication & Documentation

Reporting, client communication & teamwork undervalued

Industry wants: Good English + reporting skills

No Public Portfolio to Showcase Skills

No GitHub, Bug Bounty, CTF, TryHackMe/HTB rankings

Industry wants: Proof of passion beyond college

What Students Lack in Cybersecurity

Lack of Practical, Hands-On Skills

Most students learn theory but lack hands-on skills with industry tools like Burp Suite, Nmap, Metasploit, Wireshark & SIEM tools.

Missing Recognized Certifications

Recruiters need at least one certification to validate skills and commitment.

Weak Understanding of Real-World Infrastructure

Students don’t understand corporate setups like Active Directory, cloud, firewalls, SIEM.

Poor Reporting & Communication Skills

Cybersecurity requires documentation, teamwork, and presenting findings clearly to clients.

No Public Portfolio

Students rarely showcase work via GitHub, bug bounties, CTF writeups, lab evidence.
