LogRhythm | Exabeam, a leader in Behaviour Intelligence for the agentic enterprise, has partnered with Tuwaiq Academy, an academy specialising in educational boot camps and courses focused on advanced technologies, to support the growth of cybersecurity skills, professional certifications and talent development across Saudi Arabia.
The collaboration brings together academic learning and practical cybersecurity training to progress the goals of the Human Capability Development Programme under Saudi Vision 2030. Launched during the Tuwaiq Tech Club Ceremony, the partnership delivers specialised cybersecurity certification, training programmes and boot camps.
The programme engages nine major universities across Saudi Arabia, including King Saud University and University of Jeddah, reaching more than 40,000 students. LogRhythm | Exabeam will provide training content, instructors and exam vouchers. Tuwaiq Academy will lead programme execution, marketing and the provision of training facilities.
“Our partnership with Tuwaiq Academy is a vital step in supporting Saudi Arabia’s cybersecurity ecosystem and the upcoming goals of Saudi Vision 2030,” said Mazen Adnan Dohaji, Senior Vice President and General Manager, LogRhythm | Exabeam.
“The Kingdom is facing an ever-evolving threat landscape, from sophisticated external attacks to emerging AI-driven insider risk. With this, human oversight from skilled cybersecurity professionals becomes key to enabling a threat-ready defence posture. We are proud to support Saudi Arabia’s next generation of local talent with the practical skills needed to protect critical digital environments.”
The initiative builds on continued commitment to Saudi Arabia from LogRhythm | Exabeam. This includes the launch of its dedicated Google Cloud region in the Kingdom, the opening of its regional office in Riyadh and strong local business growth, with revenue increasing by 21% from 2024 to 2025.
Tuwaiq Academy will be accredited as the first authorised LogRhythm | Exabeam training centre in the Middle East to deliver professional certifications. The collaboration will also include the development and certification of selected Tuwaiq Academy candidates as LogRhythm | Exabeam-certified instructors. This will support local training capacity and long-term skills transfer within the Kingdom. The partnership will also create employment pathways for outstanding graduates through the LogRhythm | Exabeam partner network. It will help grow national cyber-resilience through human-led oversight, governance and strategic control.
“Empowering national talent with advanced technical capabilities is essential to Saudi Arabia’s digital future and at the centre of everything we do,” said Abdulaziz Alhammadi, CEO of Tuwaiq Academy. “As demand for cybersecurity expertise continues to grow, this partnership will give learners access to industry-recognised knowledge, practical experience and clearer routes into high-value careers. By working with LogRhythm |Exabeam, we are developing human capabilities, strengthening the digital economy and preparing Saudi talent to meet the Kingdom’s future security needs.”
