Speaking about the program, Mr. Anand Narayanan, Chief Product Officer, Simplilearn said, "With rapid digitization comes an increase in volume of data being generated, along with the risk of cyberattacks. In fact, industry reports from recent times have recorded more than 4 lakh Coronavirus related cyberattacks (Refer Source) and the numbers are growing. There is no doubt that the days ahead will see the creation and rise in demand for jobs in the cybersecurity sector, indicating the need to develop and nurture the next generation of skilled professionals. We are honored to work with MIT, one of the most prestigious universities across the globe, and empower aspirants with the relevant skills to create a job ready workforce."  

Sharing his thoughts, Jay Bavisi, President and CEO of EC-Council, stated, "EC-Council is excited to be part of this collaboration between MIT and Simplilearn. While the pandemic has hastened the adoption of digital transformation at a speed never seen before, this has inevitably increased the risk of data breaches across industries. With this program, learners will receive benefits of learning from our world class program, the Certified Ethical Hacker and help their journey in becoming Cybersecurity professionals and help the world be more secure."
