Through training, research, policy development, and knowledge exchange, the Riyadh-based UNITAR Cybersecurity Office will support efforts to strengthen cyber resilience globally.The new Office is the third in the UNITAR network, joining those in Hiroshima, Japan, and Bonn, Germany.

We are pleased to launch in Riyadh the world\u2019s first UNITAR office dedicated to cybersecurity \u2013 a choice that reflects the Kingdom\u2019s role in advancing collective progress in this domain. By connecting people and institutions across regions, the new office will contribute to bridging the critical gap in cybersecurity capabilities worldwide and, ultimately, help to turn shared risk into shared resilience.\u201dThe UNITAR Cybersecurity Office, in cooperation with the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA), the national authority in charge of cybersecurity in the Kingdom, and the national reference in all its affairs, will contribute to developing the skills of a broad range of beneficiaries around the world.\u201cStrengthening cybersecurity requires more than technology, it also demands investment in people, skills, and institutions. Through this partnership with UNITAR, we aim to advance capacity-building and knowledge exchange that strengthen cyber resilience not only for the Kingdom and the region, but for the wider international community,\u201d said H.E. Eng. Majed M. Al-Mazyed, Governor of NCA, at the signing ceremony.The new Office adds momentum to Saudi Arabia\u2019s collaborative efforts to strengthen global dialogue and collaboration across multiple sectors. In 2025, Saudi Arabia and the United Nations jointly announced the Global Initiative for Capacity Building in Cyberspace, which aims to accelerate efforts to address critical cybersecurity capacity gaps around the world.The Kingdom is also home to a growing number of regional and international entities focused on cybersecurity, including the Arab Cybersecurity Ministers Council, the Global Cybersecurity Forum (GCF), and the Centre for Cyber Economics, established in partnership between GCF and the World Economic Forum.Send us your press releases to\u00a0pressrelease.zawya@lseg.comDisclaimer: The contents of this press release was provided from an external third party provider.
