The article assesses the export potential of Russian and Turkish universities. The influx of foreign citizens to study at universities is the most important quality criterion for the country’s higher education system. It is also an indicator of the country’s integration into the world community and a major export item. The leaders in the number of students from other countries have traditionally been the United States, Great Britain, France, the USSR, and Germany. At the turn of XX — XXI centuries. a significant increase in foreign students is observed in Australia, Japan, China. Other countries are also taking steps to improve the national higher education system and, accordingly, increase the number of foreign students. But attempts to penetrate the world market of educational services are significantly complicated, the market is already thoroughly divided, and the states that have long been entrenched in it are not going to allow new players to enter it. This process is also taking place in Turkey, which is one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

In the European countries, and especially in Italy, one of the hardest challenges we are facing these days is the escalating crisis of migrants and refugees coming from the Arab World and Sub-Saharan Africa countries. The history of universities tells us that the first Universities realized a networked model in which students shaped their own study path, moving from one institution to another across Europe in order to attend the lectures by the best lecturers from different Universities. The Medieval higher education system, therefore, acted as a bridge between different cultures, fostering knowledge exchange, sharing and construction based on a networked organizational model, and an educational model promoting discussions and debates (questio and disputatio). Nowadays, ICT technologies, and above all the Internet, allow Universities to re-create a network of knowledge and of students and professors, sharing experiences and competences from different social and cultural backgrounds. The International Telematic University UNINETTUNO developed and implemented an internalization model and a psycho-pedagogic model, whose main characteristics are described in this paper, promoting the collaboration among Universities from the United States, Europe, Asia and above all from the Arab World Countries. Through this collaborations, UNINETTUNO developed the first higher education portal in the world which is available in 5 languages (Italian, English, French, Arabic and Greek), enrolled students from 168 countries of the world. The success of these international cooperation activities inspired UNINETTUNO in the creation of an Internet-based portal (The University for Refugees — Education without Boundaries, that will be presented in this paper) allowing refugees and migrants to access the University for free from any place across the world, providing services like: Recognition of the study title, Recognition of Professional Skills, Language Learning courses, Health Services, Mutual Rights and Duties. This initiative, launched in 2016, became a true laboratory of intercultural and interlingual communication that promotes a truly effective model of cooperation and inclusion with refugees and students from different parts of the world.

To date, the training system for future IT professionals on information security and integrated information security systems is quite conservative and has some inertia that must be taken into account when reforming the higher education system, including the cybersecurity training system (information security), in line with the goals and objectives of Ukraine's European integration in higher education in the context of the Bologna Process and the transition to new lists of training areas for professionals in information technology. Given that the training of future information security professionals is relatively new (since it was launched in Ukraine only in 1997 in accordance with the law of Ukraine No. 537-V) and the most dynamic in its activity, the relevance of the development of information security training system is even more relevant. That is why, in this article, we considered how the training of future information security specialists is carried out in institutions of higher education of leading countries in the world. In particular, we have considered countries such as the United States of America, the German Federal Republic, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the French Republic, the Republic of Austria and the Republic of Poland. Basically, in this article we have identified the directions in which future information security specialists are trained in the leading countries of the world, reviewed and analyzed educational programs for the training of information security specialists and disciplines related to professional disciplines. In addition, we identified the main differences in training in a particular country and made a comparative analysis between the training of future information security professionals in Ukraine and the leading countries of the world.
