Cyberoam Academy, a part of Cyberoam, a leading provider of network security appliances, announced its tie-up with the Faculty of Information Technology, King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok, Thailand. The collaboration will allow this premier university in Thailand to offer Cyberoam certified courses and prepare its students for meaningfully contributing to the growing ICT (Information Communications & Technology) sector in Thailand.

It is our belief that keeping information secure is one of the biggest challenges faced by the world today and it will keep getting bigger.
