Bethesda, MD, May 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The cybersecurity workforce is undergoing a radical transformation. Organizations are urgently creating entirely new expertise domains, developing AI-focused security positions like AI security engineers, governance analysts red team and ethics specialists and Project Mythos has accelerated this timeline. Concurrently, tightening global regulatory compliance requires more comprehensive validation of capabilities.

As the leading global cybersecurity education provider, SANS Institute is proud to offer transitioning U.S. military veterans affordable, advanced technical training, certifications and connections to high-paying jobs in cybersecurity in flexible formats to help them navigate civilian careers.

We believe service members, veterans, their families and the organizations that employ them are foundational to a strong cybersecurity workforce. That’s why we’re dedicated to equipping this community with the skills, capabilities and confidence they need to excel wherever their mission takes them. Mission matters!” — Mike Harrison,
Senior Managing Director, North America Public Sector at SANS Institute.
