About us
Cover6 Community – Atlanta is the Atlanta chapter of Cover6 Community, one of the largest cybersecurity communities in the country, running since 2012.
Career changers, students, SOC analysts, pentesters, and CISOs — all under one roof.
Free virtual meetups, live on YouTube — the same sessions the whole community attends. Offensive and defensive security, SOC labs on live infrastructure, career strategy, and hands-on tool demos.
Plus in-person meetups here in Atlanta. No agenda, no slides — just the community in one room. Dates post to the events page.
We're powered by Cover6 Solutions, a veteran-owned cybersecurity and vCISO firm. Through Cover6 Academy we publish the real thing, not teasers: Intro to Cyber — 16 modules, free — free lab access, and affordable certification practice exams built by practitioners who've been in the field.
Learn with Cover6: free courses, one for every path (no card needed)
