20. August 2024

usd AG has been actively involved in the Allianz für Cyber-Sicherheit (ACS) since 2020 and this year again supports the Germany-wide initiative's network as a partner. The ACS of the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) is dedicated to strengthening the cyber security of Germany as a business location. More than 7,700 companies and institutions are currently participating in the network and benefiting from its services.

With its Cyber Security Transformation Academy (CST Academy), usd commits to contributing to the knowledge exchange and networking efforts within the cyber security community. Because together, we are stronger against the growing threat.

“Participating in such initiatives is a natural consequence of our mission,” says Mareike Clemens, Head of CST Academy. “As a partner of the ACS and by offering attendance spots in our seminars and trainings, we share the experience and expertise of our consultants, auditors and analysts with the community.”

As this year's partner contribution, usd offers 8 free spots for the usd Basic Seminar: “Security in Kubernetes” on October 15, 2024 to members of the ACS. In this one-day seminar, security analysts from usd HeroLab will teach the basics of containers, Kubernetes and cloud native applications. The offer can be found exclusively in the ACS member area.
