Together with Nortal, the University will start a new innovative education program for cybersecurity groups of the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics already in 2023.

We are very glad that we have the opportunity to help Ivan Franko National University of Lviv because it is one of the best institutions of higher education in the Western region of the country, which in turn educates the best specialists. In modern conditions, cybersecurity is a crucial industry, because every day Ukraine faces a large number of hostile attacks, which affect the economy, infrastructure, etc. Accordingly, the state needs qualified specialists who will strengthen cybersecurity. Our company is glad that we can help to train students who will work in this field, said Rostyslav Shchepan the Director of Nortal Ukraine.
