The UAE Cabinet has given its full support to this project. The new center will help make the UAE a safer place for digital business. This project also shows how much the UAE is committed to improving digital safety, which is important for everyone who uses the internet.

The center will not just help protect businesses and people in the UAE, but also help make the UAE a stronger country in the field of cybersecurity. This work is part of the UAE’s overall plan to support new technologies and train its people to be experts in these fields.

The center is also part of the UAE's long-term plan to stay safe from digital threats. Recently, His Highness Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Ruler of Abu Dhabi and UAE National Security Advisor, visited the United States. He met with many top leaders and companies to talk about how to make the UAE a leader in technology and artificial intelligence.

The new center will help train people to protect important digital systems and stop cyber-attacks. The UAE Cyber Security Council and Google Cloud are working together on this project to make the country a top leader in protecting digital information. The center will also help provide education and training for young people, helping them learn the skills needed to work in digital security.

Dr. Mohamed Alkuwaiti, Head of Cyber Security for the UAE Government, said that this partnership is important for making the UAE one of the safest countries when it comes to protecting digital information. Google Cloud is also excited to be a part of the plan and is committed to helping build the future of cybersecurity in the UAE.

Google Cloud is also helping new businesses in the UAE with a special program. This program will help startups grow and improve their business plans. The best startups will even get free access to Google Cloud services to help their companies grow.

By making the UAE’s digital systems safer, this project will help protect the country from billions of dollars in potential losses from cyber-crimes. It will also create many new jobs in the field of cybersecurity, which will help the country’s economy. In fact, it is estimated that by 2030, this work will prevent cyber-crime losses of about $6.8 billion.

The center in Abu Dhabi will be a key place for sharing ideas and training the next generation of cybersecurity professionals. It will also work with universities and research centers around the world to stay ahead of any digital dangers. The center will train people to fight new types of cyber-attacks and provide the skills needed to protect the UAE’s digital future.

One important program run by the center will give people hands-on experience to learn how to handle real cyber-attacks. They will be trained by experts who deal with the most advanced cyber-attacks around the world. This will give people in the UAE the skills they need to keep the country’s systems safe and secure.

Overall, the UAE’s new Global Cyber Security Centre of Excellence is an important step toward building a safer digital world. It will not only help the country stay protected from cyber-attacks but also prepare the next generation of experts to lead the way in cybersecurity. This center is part of the UAE’s ongoing efforts to stay at the top of digital technology and help businesses and people thrive in the future.
