Aggregated, suitable for comparison assessment of resource potential of HEIs for high-quality training of cybersecurity specialists and indicators of such potential realization were calculated. According to the results the 56 HEIs, where cybersecurity specialists are trained, were divided into four groups. The first group includes HEIs, which occupy leading positions both in the presence of preconditions for quality training of cybersecurity professionals, and in assessing the quality of training. The second group includes HEIs that have higher than average, but not the best indicators of preconditions for quality training of cybersecurity professionals, and high indicators of training quality: such positioning indicates the successful implementation of medium and higher than medium potential. The third group includes HEIs who occupy high positions in the ranking of the quality of training, having the worse than median preconditions for quality training of cybersecurity professionals.
