BlackBerry Partners with ISC2 to Advance Cybersecurity Skills in Malaysia

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct 23 (Bernama) --

BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB)(TSX:BB) has announced a new partnership with The International Information System Security Certification Consortium (ISC2), the world's leading nonprofit member organization for cybersecurity professionals, to deliver its globally recognized cybersecurity training and certifications in Malaysia. In support of the Malaysian Government's ongoing efforts to boost digital skills, capacity and cyber-resilience, the courses are now offered as part of the BlackBerry Cybersecurity Curriculum at the world-class Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (CCoE) facility in Cyberjaya. Registration is now open for the first ISC2 courses taking place later this month.

As Malaysia's digital transformation continues to accelerate and threat surfaces expand, so too does the demand for highly-qualified cybersecurity professionals. BlackBerry's new partnership with ISC2 extends the range of internationally-certified courses available to cyber professionals at the Malaysia CCoE to help upskill and enhance capabilities to bolster defenses against ever-evolving cyber threats. The courses include ISC2's highly sought-after Certified Information Systems Security Professionals (CISSP), Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) and Certified in Cybersecurity (CC).
