The University of New Brunswick has officially launched the Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity in Fredericton, reports CTV News. The institute will offer programs for various skill levels to address the widening knowledge gap in cybersecurity education. Institute Director Ali Ghorbani says the university expects about 100 undergraduate and post-graduate students to enroll in the institute in the coming years. “Cybersecurity is no longer a networking IT problem—it affects everyone,” said Ghorbani. “(We’re) facing a huge shortage of skilled professionals, so training cybersecurity professionals is something we identified as an opportunity.”
