NEW YORK and RESTON, Va., May 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OffSec, a leader in continuous cybersecurity workforce development and learning, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., a Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, announced today that OffSec’s proactive cybersecurity training and education solutions have been added to Carahsoft’s CarahCloud Marketplace program. The CarahCloud program combines the benefits of the AWS Marketplace Private Offers feature, along with Carahsoft's contract vehicles, to provide U.S. Public Sector customers with a seamless acquisition process for their cloud solutions. AWS Marketplace is a digital catalog with thousands of software listings from independent software vendors that make it easy to find, test, buy and deploy software that runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Carahsoft’s CarahCloud-Marketplace program features flexible pricing terms, simplified billing, quick deployment and license management, making it easier to purchase software and services from AWS Marketplace vendors, such as OffSec. The program leverages Carahsoft’s extensive network of reseller partners, system integrators and managed service providers to offer customers access to the best possible pricing and procurement options.
OffSec delivers hands-on, real-world training content, courses and labs to the Public Sector that empower cybersecurity teams with comprehensive insights into the digital landscapes they safeguard, equipping them to effectively mitigate potential threats. OffSec solutions available in AWS Marketplace include:
- Learn Fundamentals: One-year access to OffSec fundamental learning paths, and two foundational courses, PEN-103 (Kali Linux Reinvented) and PEN-210 (Foundational Wireless Network Attacks) and one exam attempt for each respective certification (KLCP and OSWP).
- Learn One: One-year access to any course (i.e. PEN-200: Network Penetration Testing with Kali Linux) the customer chooses, 2 corresponding certifications (i.e. OSCP) exam attempts and OffSec Learn Fundamentals learning paths.
- Learn Unlimited: One-year unlimited access to the entire OffSec Learning Library including all courses, course labs, learning paths, unlimited exam attempts and Proving Grounds Practice labs.

“With cyberattacks on the rise, and a significant number of vacant cyber positions across the Federal Government and private sector, OffSec remains committed to helping develop a skilled workforce essential to strengthen the overall U.S. security framework,” said Steve Maher, Chief Revenue Officer at OffSec. “OffSec’s availability in AWS Marketplace is a significant milestone in our mission to ensure Public Sector cyber teams have the opportunity to continually hone their skills and enhance the security of the nation.”
Carahsoft works with a range of OffSec- and AWS-certified resellers and managed service providers to deliver a full cloud solution including AWS services, professional services, migration services and other integration services. Carahsoft’s technology portfolio offers customers the resources necessary to acquire a wide variety of cloud-based technologies that securely drive modernization via cloud technology.
“We are excited to introduce OffSec’s cyber skills education solutions in AWS Marketplace through our CarahCloud program,” said Michael Shrader, Vice President of Intelligence and Innovative Solutions at Carahsoft. “This enables Public Sector customers to access streamlined procurement, making it easy to acquire educational resources for tackling continuously evolving cyberthreats.
