On Thursday, April 24, we welcomed a delegation from Paraguay, Argentina and the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Buenos Aires to the CyberSecurityHubcz premises in Brno. The visit focused primarily on introducing the CyberRangecz team and exploring training opportunities and capacity-building models that could benefit the Argentinian and Paraguayan side.
The program began with a presentation by Jakub Čegan, head of the CyberRangecz expert team. He introduced the open-source CyberRangecz Platform, which the team has been developing over the long term. The platform is designed to help cybersecurity professionals develop their skills through practical, realistic exercises. Attendees also learned about specific examples of successful deployments.
The discussion then touched on topics such as content localization, translation into Spanish, and international implementation experiences. Today, the platform is used by universities and security teams in countries such as the United Kingdom, Spain, and Portugal. After the presentation and discussion, the guests also toured the hub's facilities.
“Thank you for the visit and we hope that Latin American countries will engage in similar cooperation projects in the future, as illegal cyber activities have no borders and touch every corner of the planet. The head of Argentine cybersecurity, Mr Pablo Navarro, was particularly interested in CyberRangeCZ's activities and is thinking about how he could replicate something similar in Argentina.”
Radek Hovorka, Head of the Commercial and Economic Section of the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Buenos Aires
Meetings are an important part of our international activities. We are committed to establishing and deepening ties across the professional cybersecurity community. Through this approach, we can connect meaningful projects while identifying strategic opportunities for deeper collaboration. As Jakub Čegan added, "Visits like this open up opportunities for collaboration and building an open community around the world so that organizations and countries are prepared for the current cybersecurity threats that are increasingly impacting our society in tangible ways."
