In a world where cyber threats are constantly evolving, staying ahead of the curve is crucial for any organization. As a matter of fact, Check Point research shows a 30% Increase in Q2 of 2024 in global cyber attacks, which marks the highest Increase in attacks seen in the last two years.

One of the best ways to stay protected against the persistent threat of a cyber-attack is a continuous workforce development routine of the company’s IT team. Due to the dynamic nature of the cyber security industry,  IT professionals must adhere to a frequent upskilling and reskilling routine to allow them to deal with the next cyber-attack lurking  around the corner.

Acknowledging the importance of ongoing reskilling and upskilling, Check Point is partnering with  Cybrary to offer an exceptional training solution, made available to all of its customers and partners through the Infinity Global Services (IGS) program. The Check Point-Cybrary partnership aims to equip organizations with the tools they need to optimize their training development and effectively combat cyber threats.

Why Cybersecurity Training is Essential

ISC2’s recent workforce study shows that over 92% of organizations require skill development to maintain their cybersecurity defenses. With the rapid pace of technological advancements and the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks, the need for comprehensive and up-to-date training has never been more critical. Check Point’s recent survey with Vanson Bourne found that an overwhelming 89% of IT and security professionals report a significant skills gap, underscoring the urgent need for innovative solutions.
