Announcing Our Partnership with Shamar Information Security

January 26, 20262 min readBy Firewall Academy

We're excited to announce that Firewall Academy has partnered with Shamar Information Security, a leading ethical hacking and consulting firm.

Why This Partnership Matters

Security awareness training is just one piece of a comprehensive security program. Organizations also need to understand their technical vulnerabilities, test their defenses, and continuously improve their security posture. That's where Shamar comes in.

Shamar Information Security brings over a decade of hands-on expertise in penetration testing, application security assessments, and advisory services. Their team delivers comprehensive risk evaluations using proprietary methodologies grounded in industry-standard frameworks.

Complementary Strengths

At Firewall Academy, we focus on building the human firewall—training employees to recognize and respond to threats before they become incidents. Shamar focuses on the technical side—finding vulnerabilities before attackers do and helping organizations mature their security programs.

Together, we offer a more complete picture:

  • Technical assessments from Shamar identify vulnerabilities in systems and applications
  • Security awareness training from Firewall Academy addresses the human element
  • Advisory services help organizations build comprehensive security programs

What This Means for Our Customers

If you're a Firewall Academy customer looking for penetration testing or security assessments, we can now make a warm introduction to a firm we trust. And if you're working with Shamar and need to strengthen your security awareness program, they can point you our way.

This isn't about bundling services or creating complicated packages. It's about connecting organizations with the right expertise at the right time.
