Raytheon extends Cyber Academy to the UK and Kuwait

Raytheon Company’s Intelligence, Information and Services business is bringing its global Cyber Academy programme to the United Kingdom and Kuwait through partnerships with the University of Gloucestershire, Lancaster University and Kuwait University.

Through these cybersecurity skills-building workshops, Raytheon is focusing on the growing worldwide cybertalent gap. These educational programmes give students the hands-on experience with cybersecurity techniques and methods to identify and address network vulnerabilities.

“The cyberthreat crosses boundaries and borders and is a global security imperative,” said Dave Wajsgras, president of Raytheon IIS. “We’re working side by side with distinguished universities and our allies around the globe to prepare the next generation of cyberdefenders to combat real-world cyberattacks.”

Raytheon’s Cyber Academy, first launched in the United Arab Emirates in 2016, is being offered domestically and in international markets strategically important to Raytheon’s business.
