Easier access to MITRE-developed MITRE ATT&CK® DefenderTM training and certification across Africa

Accra, Ghana, September 2024.

MAD20™ Technologies will support participants in the AfricaCERT community and events participants by providing a discounted price on annual licensing, enabling easier access to MITRE-developed MITRE ATT&CK® DefenderTM training and certification across Africa.

The partnership helps to close the persistent cybersecurity skill gap, teaching cybersecurity professionals how best to use MITRE ATT&CK to gain an advantage over adversaries. MITRE ATT&CK provides a common language for individuals and teams to communicate with each other more effectively and better understand real-world adversary behaviors to defend their networks and critical information systems.

“The partnership will help equip defenders in the region with rigorous training and experience to support the region’s cyber readiness,” said Jean-Robert Hountomey, co-founder of AfricaCERT.

“We are incredibly excited to offer pathways to access this mission-critical training across the continent through our partnership with AfricaCERT.” said Reggie Stevens, CEO of MAD20.
