1. What type of cybersecurity training is available at Hackers-Arise?
Hackers-Arise offers training in both offensive and defensive security. It is our belief that a true cyberwarrior should be conversant in both strategies to be effective.
Hackers-Arise offers 4 training levels, MEMBER (beginner), Subscriber (beginner to Intermediate), and Subscriber PRO (advanced and specialty courses). You can read more about each by clicking on the level you are interested in. You can see a summary of the various training packages here.
Subscriber and Subscriber PRO are a type of hybrid training model, different than other online training schools. You can both go to live training with Master OTW (at least one course per month) and then you can log into our Online Training Center and watch the videos of previous classes you may have missed.
In addition, Hackers-Arise offers a Cybersecurity Starter Bundle of essential skills to start in cybersecurity.
2. What time and how long do the live online courses run?
The live online courses start at 3pm UTC in the summer and 4pm UTC in the winter and usually run 3-5 hours with breaks for coffee, bathroom, and sometimes meals. You can come to class at any time and leave any time. If you can only attend for part of the class, that’s fine; you can review the other segments in the recordings of the class.

In Hackers-Arise All courses are recorded for your viewing at your leisure. We have our own online training center, where you can watch the videos at your own pace and receive a certificate once you have completed the course to include in your resume or hang on your wall.
5. Why does Master OTW insist upon remaining anonymous?
Master OTW often engages in investigations and assistance where the adversaries are dangerous criminals or nation-states such as Russia. He can only do this if he is anonymous. Otherwise, he and his family would be at risk. This enables him to take on cases that few others are willing to do. For more information on master OTW, click here.
6. Why does Master OTW emphasize SCADA/ICS Hacking and Security?
