An exclusive scholarship for BINUS University School of Computer Science alumni and students
Applied Cybersecurity with AI
A defensive cybersecurity program for people who already have an IT foundation. Built with BINUS Faculty and AWS.
- 13-week program
- Starts 22 October 2026
- Live online
Why now
AI made attacks easier to run and harder to spot.
This program builds the judgment defenders need.
You learn to detect real threats, analyse them, and know when the tools are wrong.
Curriculum
Thirteen weeks. Five modules. Every one produces something you can show.
This defensive cybersecurity program combines two lectures and one applied workshop each week, with three AWS lab days across threat detection, incident response, cloud security, application security, and AI supervision.
~/revou/curriculum
13 weeks · 5 modulesModule 1 Foundations of Security Thinking Weeks 1–2
Build the defender's mindset before the tools. You separate security knowledge from security capability, map a real breach from vulnerability through to business consequence, and study the attack lifecycle as a lens for defence.
WHAT YOU'LL COVER
Capability vs. knowledge Business impact of a breach Risk-based prioritisation The attacker's perspective
You'll build: Security capability map
Module 2 Security Operations: Threat Detection, Triage & Incident Response Weeks 3–5
Work the SOC analyst's core loop: detect, triage and respond to alerts, then map your findings to MITRE ATT&CK.
WHAT YOU'LL COVER
Threat detection Alert triage Incident response MITRE ATT&CK mapping
You'll build: Escalation brief
Module 3 Network & Infrastructure Security Weeks 6–7
Map and defend network and cloud infrastructure. Segmentation, hardening and monitoring on an AWS-hosted environment.
WHAT YOU'LL COVER
Network segmentation Infrastructure hardening Monitoring & logging AWS cloud security
You'll build: Network control selection
Module 4 Application Security & AI Weeks 8–10
Find and fix vulnerabilities in modern, AI-assisted applications, and supervise AI security tooling end to end.
WHAT YOU'LL COVER
Application vulnerabilities Secure development AI-assisted apps Supervising AI tools
You'll build: Remediation brief
Module 5 Professional Readiness & Capstone Weeks 11–13
The final three weeks turn everything you have learned into something you can use. Two dedicated mentorship sessions help you design and rehearse your capstone. From there you map cybersecurity career paths in Indonesia and leave with a realistic 90-day plan, closing with a live portfolio presentation to a panel of industry practitioners.
WHAT YOU'LL COVER
Two mentorship sessions Indonesia market & pathways 90-day action plan Live portfolio presentation
You'll build: A working AI-assisted security tool (vibe coding)
Every module ends in a portfolio-ready artifact you can show an employer.
What you leave with
Work you can show.
Security capability has to be demonstrated. Every module produces something you can point to.
Five portfolio artifacts
A capability map, an escalation brief, a network control selection, a remediation brief, and a validated AI assessment.
A defended capstone
A working security tool you built and documented yourself, including a logged record of the AI mistakes you caught. Presented to a panel of industry experts, and questioned the way they would question a hire.
A hands-on AWS record
Three lab days in an AWS environment, including an autonomous AI security agent you configured and validated yourself.
A professional certificate, backed by academia and industry
Awarded on completion of your capstone and the program requirements, at the graduation ceremony on the BINUS Kemanggisan campus, which you can also attend online.
Who teaches you
Principles from academics. Judgment from industry experts.
Frameworks from BINUS faculty, real-world judgment from working defenders, and lab infrastructure from the AWS specialists who build it.
Your learning experience
Live online, with opening and graduation on the BINUS campus.
Every session runs live online, including the three AWS lab days. Two sessions are also held in person at BINUS Kemanggisan, the opening and graduation. Attending on campus is optional and you can join both online if you are outside Jabodetabek.
BINUS Kemanggisan Campus
Live online, three evenings a week
Interactive and instructor-led. Every module includes a hands-on simulation where you work a real scenario alongside the cohort, including three AWS lab days designed and taught by AWS security specialists, accessed remotely from your own machine.

Frequently asked questions
About the scholarship
Who can get this scholarship?
Alumni from every graduating year and active students from every semester of BINUS University School of Computer Science.
Does the scholarship apply to later cohorts?
This scholarship is only for the first cohort, starting 22 October 2026.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Installment options are available for the Rp 9,900,000 scholarship price.
About the program
Do I need prior cybersecurity knowledge?
No. But you do need a technical foundation: comfort with basic IT, networking and command-line concepts. This program is an entry point into defensive security.
Is this an offensive security or ethical hacking class?
This is a defensive (Blue Team) cybersecurity program. You learn to detect, investigate and respond to cyber threats with the mindset real security teams use. Along the way you also learn how attackers work and the techniques they commonly use, so you can better recognise and counter them. The emphasis is on building defensive skills.
How much of it is about AI?
AI runs through the whole curriculum, both as a working tool and as something you learn to supervise: mapping alerts, drafting incident reports, running vulnerability assessments, and verifying AI output at every step.
Can I join while studying or working?
Yes. Live sessions run Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings (19:30 to 21:30 WIB), and every session is recorded. The opening and graduation at BINUS Kemanggisan are optional and both can be joined online.
Do you place graduates in jobs?
We do not guarantee job placement. You leave with five portfolio artifacts, a professional certificate and a realistic 90-day plan. Together they are proof of operational capability you can take to the job market.
What happens in the AWS labs?
Over three lab days you apply defensive concepts in an AWS environment, accessed remotely from your own machine: working an alert queue with threats, mapping and monitoring an AWS network, and configuring and validating an AI security agent. The labs are designed and taught by AWS security specialists.
Do I get a BINUS certificate?
Yes. Participants who complete the capstone and all program requirements receive a professional certificate from RevoU, BINUS University and GreatNusa, awarded at the graduation ceremony on the BINUS Kemanggisan campus. If you cannot attend in person, you can join the graduation online.
