Cyber Polygon is an international online cybersecurity training. It is the official project of the World Economic Forum's Shaping the Future of Cybersecurity and Digital Trust Platform and is also supported by INTERPOL.
The initiative is aimed at raising the global cyber resilience and the expansion of intersectoral cooperation against cyberthreats. The online exercise connects companies from different industries, international organisations, state and law enforcement agencies to train their competencies, exchange best practices and advance collaboration while responding to cyberattacks. Cyber Polygon is absolutely free of charge for all the participants.
In 2019 we organised the pilot training for the first time. Cyber Polygon 2020 soared to new heights. This year, 120 organisations from 29 countries took part in the technical training for cybersecurity specialists. Along with that we had a powerful live stream track featuring discussions and interviews with 20 high-level speakers. 5 million spectators from 57 countries watched it online. It showed that cybersecurity issue concerns more and more people all over the world, which is great given the scale of the existing threat.
