Iran Cyber Academy Expands Recruitment Despite US Sanctions Arabian Post
Ravin Academy is seeking between 600 and 1,200 Iranians aged 17 to 30 for a free, year-long cybersecurity scholarship programme. The initiative represents a substantial expansion for an organisation that US authorities have accused of training hackers and recruiting some graduates for Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and Security.
The programme, promoted under the name Namavar, includes technical instruction and competitions requiring participants to examine real or simulated industrial infrastructure and develop possible cyberattack scenarios. The academy has said at least 600 successful applicants will receive scholarships and undergo a structured training programme before entering the professional cybersecurity market.
