Cyber Pro: Ethical Hacking Basics for Teens

A hands-on introduction to cybersecurity for teens, using safe simulated environments and Capture-the-Flag challenges. Students learn how hackers think-and how to defend against attacks-developing analytical skills used in real cyber careers.

Benefits for Children:

• Learn real hacking and defense techniques in a safe environment.
  

• Build logic, persistence, and analytical thinking.
  

• Work in teams like real cyber analysts.

Benefits for Parents:

• Safe, controlled cybersecurity training supervised by professionals.
  

• Students gain valuable future-career skills in a high-demand field.
  

• Encourages discipline, ethics, and responsibility.

Lesson Curriculum

Lesson 1 - Intro to Ethical Hacking

Teens learn about vulnerabilities, threat actors, and the role of cybersecurity experts.

Lesson 2 - OSINT Investigations

Students use public tools to gather information ethically.

Lesson 3 - Password Cracking Basics

Safe simulations teaching brute-force logic and password weaknesses.

Lesson 4 - Web Attacks (Simple SQLi, XSS Simulators)

Hands-on practice in educational labs.

Lesson 5 - Defensive Security & Firewalls

Teens learn about securing systems and filtering traffic.

Lesson 6 - Network Mapping & Reconnaissance

Students map small simulated networks.

Lesson 7 - Mini CTF Challenge

Teams solve hacking missions in a safe sandbox.

Lesson 8 - Final CTF & Certification

A graduation challenge and ceremonial certificate.

Final Project:

“Mini CTF Cyber Challenge”

Students participate in a structured Capture-the-Flag challenge:
• password cracking simulations
• OSINT cases
• secure password rebuild
• safe lab vulnerabilities (XSS, SQLi mock environments)
This project demonstrates comprehension of offense and defense, teamwork, and problem-solving under pressure.
