About United States Cybersecurity Institute (USCSI®)/about-united-states-cybersecurity-institute/index

The United States Cybersecurity Institute (USCSI®) designs and creates the most robust and impactful cybersecurity certification programs to develop the best skills to identify, assess, analyze, and secure any cyber threats for organizations or institutions. The USCSI® certification programs are designed for students, academics, individuals, professionals, organizations, academia, and governments across the globe.

The Global Average Internet Penetration Rate was roughly recorded at 67.1%; with North America contributing about 96.9% in 2024(Statista). This number can create chaos due to risks involved in the cyber world. We are already aware of facts such as ransomware attacks, SolarWinds supply-chain disasters, and Log4j – with these threats rising with more advanced versions of cyberattacks, every individual must understand the role of cybersecurity within homes, offices, businesses, and schools.

Every organization must become cyber resilient by developing the right workforce of experts and talents who can identify and mitigate the risks well in advance. At USCSI®, we understand the future versions of business which will be more virtual than physical and thus have developed the best cybersecurity knowledge framework on which our certification programs are designed.
