Genians Supports US Next-Generation Cybersecurity Workforce Training with National Science Foundation Funding

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyungsoo Park] Genians is participating in a U.S. government-supported education development project to nurture the next generation of cybersecurity talent in collaboration with American universities.

Genians, a leader in zero-trust solutions, announced on the 15th that it will participate in the cybersecurity education program at MassBay Community College.

Genians is collaborating with MassBay Community College to carry out the "Next-Generation Cybersecurity Workforce Development" project, which aims to train faculty capable of providing specialized STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education focused on cybersecurity programs. The ACT project receives $1.2 million in funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF).

To successfully carry out the ACT project, Genians will provide high-quality cybersecurity educational content. Starting with MassBay Community College, additional projects will be conducted with middle, high schools, and higher education institutions across the United States.

In the project, Genians will support its self-developed zero-trust core solution, NAC. This solution protects networks and blocks threats by identifying and authenticating users and various devices accessing the network and enforcing control procedures.

Professor Shamshi Musavi of the MassBay Computer Science Department said, "Genians' NAC solution is the easiest to implement in the industry, allowing efficient experience of essential security functions." He added, "By providing practical, experience-centered security education content with Genian NAC, we will contribute to enhancing education for cybersecurity vulnerable groups, mainly in the Boston area on the U.S. East Coast."

Kim Gye-yeon, head of Genians' U.S. branch, stated, "We will actively support the ACT project and expand the supply of solutions to build a better security culture in various universities and regions across the United States."
