Hands-on Cybersecurity Training Labs, Courses & Assessments

Anytime, Anywhere

Labs are in a hosted environment that can be accessed on-demand, anywhere, anytime. Learners can be self-paced or part of a class, team, or working group.

Assess Skills in Real Time

FlexLabs skills assessments walk individuals through various simulated scenarios. Each assessment collects hundreds of data points in real-time as tasks are completed. The final report provides the user’s manager or instructor with scored results, including an overview of strengths and weaknesses, and recommendations for skills development.

Realistic Environments

Cloud Range FlexLabs allow team members to work in a simulated, realistic environment. Training modules use real-world infrastructure, cybersecurity tools, and threat scenarios.

Reporting

Cloud Range reports provide insights into each team member’s strengths and where there are opportunities for growth. Teams can also be tracked as a whole.

Options for Every Level

Cloud Range has hundreds of FlexLabs, ensuring there are modules for various roles, skill levels, and proficiencies.

Customized Learning Plans

Customized learning plans with FlexLabs can be easily generated in Cloud Range’s Performance Portal based on each person’s goals, roles, assessments, progress, and organizational criteria. Additionally, learning plans are created to support FlexRange live-fire simulation missions and bridge any gaps, ensuring each team member receives individual continuous learning.

CPE Credits

Upon completion of any FlexLabs, a certificate is issued that includes earned Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits based on the length of the scenario. They can also be submitted to other organizations, such as CompTIA, to maintain certifications.

Remove the planning guesswork: Aligned to the NICE Framework

Every lab exercise aligns with the industry-standard NICE cybersecurity workforce framework with detailed competency mapping. That ensures learners are mastering the necessary activities to meet their goals.
