Bearing Point to open CoE in Bucharest

In early August, technology consultancy company BearingPoint announced that it is expanding its Security Advisory Center of Excellence (CoE) in Romania.

"Cyber Resiliency is a major focus of the Security Center of Excellence, whilst the demand for information security services is increasing globally", says Christian Gurny, Partner BearingPoint Romania. "We have the advantage that there is a continuous flow of talents from the universities to the Romanian cyber community, constantly of the highest level in Europe, as proven at the European Cyber-Security Challenge (ECSC).

In addition, Romania is already providing cyber stability in the region and has success stories in the areas of cyber threat defense and Managed Security Services."

"I've been engaged in the international cybersecurity community for many years, and I think the market is more than ready for the next step in deploying and operationalizing next generation cyber resilience concepts. The Romanian Cybersecurity community is highly advanced, and we're currently attracting top talent that is building the backbone of our CoE", said Sergiu Zaharia, Cybersecurity Center lead at BearingPoint Bucharest.

BearingPoint is an independent management and technology consultancy with European roots and a global reach. The company operates in three units: consulting, solutions and ventures. The firm has a global consulting network with more than 10,000 people and supports clients in over 75 countries.
