As a cybersecurity education company, GSX will continue to support BayCurrent’s cybersecurity framework by providing training programs that help personnel acquire security skills. BayCurrent offers a broad range of cybersecurity services, including the introduction of solutions based on zero trust architecture, enhancement of incident response capabilities in CSIRT/SOC operations, and the development and strengthening of secure development and operations processes. In response to strong customer demand, BayCurrent is rapidly advancing the development of security professionals. To strengthen implementation capabilities, BayCurrent has adopted the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) program. In addition to providing consulting services, BayCurrent also carries out security implementation and is working to further reinforce its delivery structure. By adopting CEH, 100 consultants in technical divisions will acquire security implementation skills, strengthening BayCurrent’s ability to deliver one-stop services from upstream processes to implementation. To provide consulting from a management perspective, BayCurrent has adopted the Official CISSP CBK Training program. Through its consulting services, BayCurrent often works with high-level clients such as department heads, making it essential to propose solutions with management expertise. Some clients also need guidance on where to begin or how to proceed with cybersecurity initiatives, requiring consultants to take a broad, holistic view. By adopting CISSP, 100 consultants will be able to understand cybersecurity from a management perspective, contributing to higher service quality and greater value for customers. CEH is one of the international security certifications accredited by EC-Council and is designed for those aiming to become certified ethical hackers. The course focuses on acquiring white-hacking skills that combine knowledge, technical skills and attack methods. By gaining the judgment capabilities of an attacker’s perspective, participants can apply them to more effective defense. CISSP is an international information security professional certification accredited by ISC2. The Official CISSP CBK Training comprehensively and systematically covers the technical knowledge required to understand and apply the eight domains of the ISC2 CISSP CBK, often regarded as a common language of information security.
