Fortinet Partners With Discovery Education And Verizon On Digital Citizenship Initiative
Fortinet News, Thursday, February 27th, 2025
With more than 4.8 million cybersecurity professionals needed to close the global workforce gap, addressing the talent shortage requires ongoing collaboration and creativity.
At Fortinet, we have a longstanding commitment to shrinking the cyber skills gap, and we pursue a variety of public-private partnerships to deliver cybersecurity education, training, and certification opportunities to individuals of all ages worldwide.
Earlier this month, I was honored to represent Fortinet as a witness before the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security's hearing on 'Preparing the Pipeline: Examining the State of America's Cyber Workforce.' During the hearing, I emphasized that stronger partnerships are vital to making cybersecurity education and training accessible to all and that cybersecurity awareness must begin at a young age to build a steady pipeline of future cyber talent.
