What CyberJutsu does

CyberJutsu is a Vietnam-based cybersecurity training company founded in 2017 that began commercial operations in June 2020, headquartered at Số 3 Nguyễn Xuân Ôn, Phường Gia Định, Ho Chi Minh City. The company delivers practical, hands-on cybersecurity education through a portfolio of six primary courses covering web penetration testing (WEB PENTEST 2026, 72 hours), red team operations (REDTEAM 2026), SOC analyst training (BLUETEAM 2026, 60 hours), AI agentic security (AI FOR SECURITY 2026, 30 hours), CVE analysis (CVE ANALYSIS 2026, 70 hours), and secure coding. Its training platform, learn.cyberjutsu.io, operates on a Flipped Classroom model combining self-paced video learning with live online mentorship, Docker-based cyber range environments, custom-built lab scenarios, and a proprietary AI assistant (Susu) trained on CyberJutsu's own curriculum. The company has accumulated 2,000+ course graduates and 1,500+ workshop participants, supported by a community footprint of 16,000+ Facebook followers, 15,500+ YouTube hours watched on CyberJutsuTV, and an active Discord forum.

The revenue model blends a tiered B2C subscription structure (Basic, Standard, Premium, and 1-on-1 Super Premium tiers priced in Vietnamese dong with a 10% VAT and 12-month access) with B2B enterprise training delivered as custom programs, simulation labs, and skills assessments. Premium Bundle pricing reaches 39.6 million VND (~USD 1,575), with 1-on-1 cohorts capped at 4-8 students and priced at 40-50 million VND (~USD 1,600-2,000). Enterprise customers are concentrated in Vietnamese financial institutions (VIB, VNDIRECT, Vietcombank Securities, ACB, MSB, Techcombank), technology companies (Zalo, Viettel, CMC Cyber Security, Coc Coc, TymeX/GoTyme), and government bodies (VNCERT/CC, NCSC). Marketing channels combine content marketing (YouTube, blog), community-driven outreach (Facebook, Discord, CTF competitions), event-driven lead generation (DF Cyber Defense 2025, university workshops), and a dedicated jobs board (jobs.cyberjutsu.io) that connects graduates with employers.

The company received an undisclosed investment from ECQ Global in August 2022 and was previously selected by JICA as the training partner for Vietnam's national cybersecurity capacity building project, achieving an 87.5% pass rate for OSCP and OSWE certification candidates. Co-founders include Nguyễn Mạnh Luật (CEO, former Microsoft MSRC engineer and Tencent security researcher, OSCE3 holder), Hoàng Quốc Thịnh (former OWASP Vietnam Chapter Leader, Red Team Director), and Nguyễn Phi Kha (20 years IT experience, hardware security specialist). The company employs 1-10 staff and operates as a Vietnamese joint stock company (Công Ty Cổ Phần Cyber Jutsu, Tax ID 0314377455) under founder control with ECQ Global as a minority investor.

Broad incumbents

• SANS Institute: Largest incumbent in professional cybersecurity training with deep enterprise/government penetration and globally recognized GIAC certifications. Competes with CyberJutsu at the high-end enterprise and government training tier that CyberJutsu accesses through VNCERT/NCSC/VNBA relationships.
• OffSec: Global leader in offensive security training and the OSCP/OSWE certifications that CyberJutsu's curriculum maps to. Compares directly on certification prep depth, though OffSec is U.S.-headquartered and serves a global enterprise audience rather than the Vietnam-focused market CyberJutsu targets.

Direct peers

• TryHackMe: Subscription-based, gamified cybersecurity learning platform with hands-on labs and guided pathways for beginners-to-intermediate learners. Closely comparable to CyberJutsu's Flipped Classroom, lab-driven model and tiered subscription pricing, though TryHackMe has global reach and a much larger user base.
• StationX: Online cybersecurity training provider offering courses, certification prep, and mentorship for individuals and enterprise customers. Comparable tiered course/mentorship structure to CyberJutsu's Standard/Premium/1-on-1 model.
• Cybrary: Online cybersecurity training platform with video courses, hands-on labs, and career-path subscriptions serving individual learners and enterprise teams. Direct competitor in the subscription-based, hands-on training model CyberJutsu uses for individual learners.
• INE Security: Subscription-based platform offering structured cybersecurity and networking training paths with hands-on labs and certification prep (e.g., eJPT). Compares to CyberJutsu's tiered online subscription model targeting career-transitioners and IT professionals.
• Antisyphon Training: Training provider focused on practical, instructor-led blue-team and red-team courses with a strong community/webinar model. Compares to CyberJutsu's offensive/defensive split and community-driven GTM motion, though U.S.-headquartered.
• Hack The Box: Provider of hands-on cybersecurity labs, CTF-style challenges, and the HTB Academy for structured learning. Directly comparable to CyberJutsu's Red Team and Web Pentest offerings — CyberJutsu even bundles HTB VIP+ accounts in premium tiers — and is a primary competitor for the same learner persona.

Regional players

• FPT Software Academy: Vietnamese IT training arm of FPT Software offering software engineering and cybersecurity upskilling programs targeting local IT workforce and university students. Regional peer competing for the same Vietnamese learner pool and university partnerships CyberJutsu cultivates.

Emerging players

• TCM Security: Boutique cybersecurity training company known for practical, affordable courses (Practical Ethical Hacking, PJWT) targeting career-transitioning pentesters. Closely comparable to CyberJutsu's practical pentesting tracks, but smaller and U.S.-based.
