Kazakhstan has completed the selection process for the Red Team & Blue Team Cyber Academy educational program. Following the National Cyber Shield CTF tournament, 100 winners received grants for free training.

A total of 1,567 applications were submitted from across the country. After the selection process, 361 participants advanced to the tournament, where the top 100 candidates were selected.

The project is implemented with the support of the Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Astana Hub, and State Technical Service JSC.

During the six-month online training, participants will study in Red Team and Blue Team tracks, gaining skills in vulnerability assessment, monitoring, and cyber defense.

The program’s key advantage is its practice-oriented approach based on real cyberattack simulations and defensive operations.
