The idea of establishing the Cyber Command Knowledge Center was born in 2014, after its founders noticed that cyber security entities in various organizations in Israel were in need of competent professional employees with deep knowledge of the cyber security field.

After visiting existing colleges which feature cyber security study programs, they came to the understanding that there was no connection between what the students were learning in the various courses and the knowledge required by cyber security experts in national defense bodies, government ministries and leading technology companies in the area.

They also realized that the only graduates who will be able to enter the industry and reach key positions in both the private and public sectors would be those who will excel in, and be at the forefront of, cyber security software and technology.
