Cybersecurity CV template
A dark banner and a monospaced contact block over a certification-first sidebar.
Built for a document that gets read twice: once by a recruiter matching keywords, once by an engineer who wants to know what you actually shipped. A two-column page without a photo, which buys you room for a long skills or certification list without pushing your experience onto a third page.

ATS score 4/5 · Strong
How this layout behaves in an applicant tracking system
Four out of five, and the deduction is specifically about the second column: everything a screening system ranks you on lives in the wide one.
Two columns mean two reading orders, and the parser picks one. Modern systems handle it well, older ones read straight across the page and mix the side column into your experience.
A single column parses more reliably than two, in every system we have tested against. If the application goes through a portal you do not recognise, or the employer is large enough to screen automatically, send a one-column version instead — the ATS CV templates are built for that job, and your content moves across without being retyped.

Scores are our own assessment of how a parser handles the layout — never a guarantee about one specific employer’s system.
In practice
Three situations Cybersecurity CV is the right answer to
A role where credentials are the qualifier
Licences, clearances and accreditations decide the first cut. Putting them in a column of their own makes them findable in seconds instead of buried three roles deep. The reader it was drawn for: Security analysts and SOC engineers.
Projects that carry weight
The side column absorbs the stack, cloud platforms and certifications, which is exactly what keeps the experience column about what you built and what it did rather than a list of technology names.
An application where the work speaks
No photograph means the top third of the page belongs to your name, your title and your profile — the three things a reviewer uses to decide whether to keep reading past six seconds. Cybersecurity CV has no photo slot to remove, so the same file works in every market you send it to.
Make it yours
Customising Cybersecurity CV
Accent colour
Cybersecurity CV ships with #22c55e as its accent. Cool accents — indigo, teal, slate — suit the type of document. The accent is used at small sizes on labels and rules here, so anything too pale loses contrast against white; test it before you commit.
Fonts and heading style
A clean sans keeps library names, version numbers and acronyms legible at 10pt, which is where a technical CV is actually read. Decorative heading faces make a stack list harder to scan for no gain. Heading case — uppercase, capitalised or as typed — is a separate switch, and it changes the character of the page more than most people expect.
Spacing and density
The column split is fixed, but everything inside it is not: type size, line height, section spacing and page margins all adjust, and on a divided page the margins are the setting that buys you the most room without crowding the rule between the columns.
Sections and order
Skills, projects and certifications matter as much as employment. Promote projects above experience if you are early-career, self-taught or changing track — the work is the evidence in all three cases. Every section can be renamed, reordered or hidden, and Pro adds custom sections for anything the standard set does not cover.
Paper size and export
A4 or US Letter, switched in one control, with the layout re-flowing to the new page rather than being scaled to fit. The PDF is generated from the same code you see in the preview, so what you approve on screen is what downloads.
