Global cyber education company Cybint announced Thursday that it has established a partnership with India's Astraea Solutions, its first certified training partner in the South Asian country.
Through this partnership, Astraea will bring the Israeli company's cybersecurity bootcamp to India in two phases. In phase one, in line with COVID-19 restrictions, Astraea will offer the career-oriented bootcamp through remote learning. In phase two, the companies plan to make the bootcamp available through Astraea's training centers in New Delhi, Lucknow, Jaipur and other cities, Cybint said. Astraea is a provider of tech-driven cybersecurity and healthcare services.
"We are proud to have Astraea joining our cyber center network and are eager about bringing skills-based, real-world cybersecurity programs to India," said Cybint CEO and Founder, Roy Zur. "This partnership follows recent announcements of Cybint Certified Centers in Singapore and in Myanmar, and we are excited to see the adoption of our innovative cybersecurity training programs throughout the Asia-Pacific region."
The Cybint Bootcamp is a 3-month intensive training that has a proven record in leading its graduates to high-paying entry-level cybersecurity jobs. With an accelerated learning methodology stemming from the company's Israeli military background, there is a strong focus on in-demand skills and curriculum informed by trends in the cybersecurity industry – allowing those with no prior background to transition into the cyber industry, according to Cybint.
"Cybersecurity is unique because it's a relatively new, fast-evolving field that needs deep, market-ready skillsets to be imbibed. The Astraea-Cybint Bootcamp offers a unique opportunity not only for fresh graduates but also Indians seeking a shift to a global career in Cyber Defense," said Kaushik Ray, Managing Director, Astraea Solutions. "We chose to partner with Cybint because it's the only turnkey program that focuses highly on careers in Cyber Defense and role diversity beyond India."
