On Tuesday, the Georgia Cyber Center officially opens.

The Augusta facility is intended to train people for computer-related security jobs. It will also serve as the headquarters for the GBI’s high-tech crime investigations, and it’s near Fort Gordon, which is a headquarters for the Army’s cyber unit.

“It’s exciting for the GBI,” said Steven Foster, special agent in charge at the GBI’s Cyber-Crime Unit.
