The George C. Marshall Center for Security Studies, a German-American security training partnership, has released a new batch of 72 professionals who have completed a cybersecurity policy program.
The graduates, who came from 52 countries, trained with a number of U.S. agencies on internet governance, online freedom, international cyber policy, public-private partnerships and other matters related to cyber regulation, the Department of Defense said Friday.
“Our program focuses on areas that are not just within the normal Department of Defense or Ministry of Defense lanes or areas of expertise, but also examines whole-of-government approaches in addressing cyber security issues and challenges,†said Philip Lark, the course director of the center’s Program on Cyber Security Studies.
“We are the only DoD regional center that has the authority to do a transnational program like this with participants from all over the world,†said retired U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Keith Dayton, the center’s director.
The Marshall Center has trained security professionals for the past 25 years, and has been providing transnational courses since 2014.
