Cybersecurity threats are constantly evolving, and businesses need to protect their digital assets. A cybersecurity certification demonstrates your commitment to staying updated with the latest trends and technologies. It also ensures that you are equipped with the skills to identify and mitigate potential threats, making you a valuable asset to any organisation.

Certified professionals are often preferred by employers, leading to better job opportunities and higher salaries.

Certification programs ensure that you stay current with the latest cybersecurity practices and tools.

With specialised knowledge, you can help your organisation build a stronger defence against cyber threats.

Certifications from recognized institutions, like Rocheston, add credibility to your professional profile.

IT personnel are on the front lines of defence against cyber threats. By obtaining certifications, they gain specialised skills to anticipate, detect, and mitigate security risks effectively. Rocheston’s certifications—RCCE, RCCS, and RCCO—are especially valuable and HRD claimable, making them a strategic investment for professionals and organisations alike.



RCCE (Rocheston Certified Cybersecurity Engineer) focuses on the technical aspects of cybersecurity, providing engineers with the knowledge to design, implement, and maintain robust security architectures. This certification covers a wide range of security technologies and methodologies, equipping engineers to build systems that can withstand sophisticated cyberattacks.


RCCS (Rocheston Certified Cybersecurity Specialist) offers specialised training for professionals aiming to deepen their expertise in specific areas such as network security, ethical hacking, or malware analysis. It is ideal for those who want to focus on hands-on skills to identify vulnerabilities and respond to security threats in real-time.


RCCO (Rocheston Certified Cybersecurity Compliance Officer) is tailored for professionals responsible for ensuring that organisations adhere to cybersecurity laws, regulations, and standards. This certification teaches compliance officers how to navigate complex regulatory environments, develop comprehensive compliance programs, and ensure their organisations meet industry standards for cybersecurity.


Recently, Awantec signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with CyberSecurity Malaysia, marking a significant step in upskilling IT personnel through these cybersecurity certifications. This partnership will provide access to high-quality training and resources, empowering IT professionals to achieve RCCE and RCCS certifications. This initiative aligns with Awantec's commitment to enhancing the nation's cybersecurity capabilities by equipping professionals with the necessary skills to protect our digital future.
