Worldwide Network of Select Training Partners Instructs

Professionals How to Optimize Network Information Security Using

CyberGuard Products

CyberGuard Corporation (Nasdaq:CGFW) the technology leader in network security, today announced a new global education and certification program designed to arm security professionals with the most effective strategies for protecting networks using the advanced technologies available in CyberGuard's firewall/VPN products.

Taught by leading industry security professionals who are part of a worldwide network of Global Education Partners, the new program covers every key aspect of configuring and managing security with CyberGuard appliances. Successful completion of the certificate programs earns participants CyberGuard Firewall Security Administrator (CFSA) and CyberGuard Firewall Security Officer (CFSO) credentials.

"CyberGuard recognizes that providing the industry's most secure firewall/VPN appliance is not sufficient to ensure that networks are secured," said Tom Gobeille, president and CEO of Network Computing Architects of Bellevue, Wash., one of CyberGuard's authorized Global Education Centers.

"The new technical certification programs provide the knowledge security professionals need to ensure the successful implementation of their network security policy," added David Beesley, technical director of Network Defence Limited in Merseyside, UK, another authorized Global Education Center.

Christo Simeonoff, founder and president of Blue Sky Industries Pty Limited, a CyberGuard authorized Global Education Center in St. Leonards, Australia, commented, "With these new courses, CyberGuard has distilled the essential skills required to properly secure a network."

Kris Zupan, CEO/CTO of e-DMZ Security, LLC, in Wilmington, Del., added, "We have had very positive feedback from the courses and look forward to promoting best security practices in this rapidly changing threat environment through the Global Education Program."

The courses immerse students in an authentic, state-of-the-art learning environment that provides hands-on experience with a realistic simulation of a global distributed corporate network. All of the courses are modular and utilize the same methodology, so learning is readily transferred.

Global Education Centers offer local CyberGuard certified technical instructors and standardized technical certification curriculum to security professionals across the globe.
