Tuwaiq Academy Expands Cybersecurity Training Through New Deals

Tuwaiq Academy Expands Cybersecurity Training Through New Deals

Post by : Mariam Al-Faris

Tuwaiq Academy announced several important partnerships during Black Hat MEA 2025, showing its strong commitment to improving cybersecurity skills in Saudi Arabia and the entire region. One of the biggest announcements was the launch of the first regional cybersecurity academy in cooperation with Kaspersky. Through this partnership, the academy will offer advanced training programs, hands-on workshops, and practical learning opportunities. These programs are designed to help students and professionals understand modern cyber threats and learn how to respond effectively. By working with a global cybersecurity leader like Kaspersky, Tuwaiq Academy aims to provide world-class training in the Kingdom.

A second major partnership was signed with Offsec, one of the top global organizations for cybersecurity certifications. Offsec is known for highly respected qualifications such as OSCP, OSWP, and OSEP. With this new cooperation, Saudi talent will gain access to leading international training pathways that prepare them for high-level cybersecurity roles. This partnership supports Saudi Arabia’s national goals of becoming a regional hub for digital security and advanced technology. It will also help young professionals compete confidently in global job markets.

Tuwaiq Academy also introduced new programs with EC-Council, the international body behind the CEH and ECSA certifications. These programs will focus on ethical hacking, cyber defense techniques, and real-world security challenges. The main aim is to ensure that learners receive practical training instead of only theoretical knowledge. This will help them build strong technical skills and prepare for real industry needs.

Together, these partnerships reflect Tuwaiq Academy’s long-term plan to work with global technology leaders and strengthen national capabilities in cybersecurity. As cyber threats continue to grow, the demand for skilled professionals is increasing quickly. The academy’s new certifications, workshops, and training pathways will prepare a new generation of experts who can support government institutions, private companies, and national digital infrastructure. Through these efforts, Tuwaiq Academy is helping Saudi Arabia build a safer and more advanced digital future.
