Palo Alto Networks Cybersecurity Academy provides academic institutions with active learning plans including access to training, (virtual) labs and certification in the most cutting edge cybersecurity solutions.\u00a0More than 1,000 institutions across 72 countries are already part of the Cybersecurity Academy programme, equipping their students with the necessary cybersecurity knowledge and skills to find success in a constantly changing and rapidly evolving sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the agreement, PUE Academy will manage the Palo Alto Networks Cybersecurity Academy programme in Spain with an action plan that includes teacher training and periodic events to get to know the initiative, helping to prepare future generations of trained professionals in this highly requested field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this agreement, PUE Academy and Palo Alto Networks undertake the mission to promote and provide official cybersecurity training and certification within the context of growing cybersecurity threats and a lack of qualified professionals: The (ISC)\u00b2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study<\/a> reflects a severe shortage of these experts. They estimate 2.8 million qualified cybersecurity professionals worldwide, while in order to defend organizations correctly there is a need for 4.07 million more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe face a skills gap in the cybersecurity industry. Training the next generation of cybersecurity specialists is critical in helping secure our digital future. We look forward to working with PUE Academy to deliver our education initiative to the Spanish market, as we strive to help ensure that each day is safer and more secure than the one before,\u201d<\/strong> said Arkadiusz Kotowski, Cybersecurity Academy Manager at Palo Alto Networks.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Educational centres that are interested in becoming official Palo Alto Networks Cybersecurity Academy centres will have at their disposal the PUE Academy team aiding them in the entire process, with full service from the outset, including continuous advice and support.
