BCR Cyber Launches Free Cybersecurity Training for Maryland Government Workers

BCR Cyber launches free COMET cybersecurity training for Maryland government employees, funded by state grants. Includes CompTIA Security+ certification and AI security training. Apply by Sept 15.

This initiative directly addresses the critical shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals in government sectors, particularly important as cyber threats against public infrastructure continue to escalate. For Maryland residents, this means their personal data and essential services are better protected by well-trained professionals. The program's focus on AI integration in security operations prepares workers for emerging threats, while the free training removes financial barriers to career advancement. With government agencies increasingly targeted by sophisticated cyber attacks, investing in workforce development through programs like COMET is essential for maintaining public trust and ensuring the security of critical infrastructure systems that citizens rely on daily.
