The Path to Ransomware
Organizations increasingly adopt Cloud Range's cyber range training to prepare their cybersecurity teams for real-world cyber threats, with a focus on ransomware due to its destructive potential. Learn the steps to take before tackling a live-fire ransomware cyber attack scenario on the cyber range.
Breach & Attack Simulation Versus Cyber Range Simulation Training
Discover the differences between Breach & Attack Simulation (BAS) platforms and live-fire Cyber Range Simulation Training for enhanced cybersecurity. While BAS probes technological defenses, cyber range training sharpens practitioners' skills in responding to real attacks. Learn how BAS and cyber range training work together to protect against evolving cyber threats.
Stop Over-Relying on EDR Tools: The Need for Holistic Cybersecurity Skills
Over the past ten years, cybersecurity has advanced dramatically, partly due to the increasing complexity and frequency of cyberthreats. In order to identify and counteract these risks, the field has had to rely more and more on cutting-edge techniques and software. While these tools are essential to contemporary cybersecurity, it's key to remember that analysts also play a critical role.
How Does Cyber Range Training Improve Soft Skills?
In addition to improving the SOC's ability to respond to a major attack while increasing the team's hard skills, Cloud Range’s unique cyber range training also helps teams improve their soft skills including critical thinking, problem-solving, communication skills, insight/instinct, and teamwork.
How Does Cyber Range Training Offer an Accurate Measure of Cyber Risk?
Cyber range training is an essential tool to align cyber operations readiness as a measure of cyber risk. This article illustrates how this type of training is used to measure that risk in the context of the commercial Cloud Range offering.
How Does Cyber Range Training Make Life Easier for SOC Managers?
Cyber range training with Cloud Range includes aptitude testing, candidate assessments, skills development labs, and live-fire team simulation scenarios. Learn how that helps SOC managers overcome with the ongoing skills gap and measurably improve team performance.
How Does Cyber Range Training Optimize Hiring and Retention?
The cyber hiring process requires a significant investment of time and effort for SOC managers. Unfortunately, resumes, interviews, and certifications don’t tell the whole story about a given candidate. That’s why security leaders are increasingly using cyber ranges to improve the effectiveness of their hiring and evaluation process to build a skilled and knowledgeable team.
How Does Cyber Range Training Prepare SOC Teams for the Next Attack?
You don’t want the first time your SOC team sees an attack to be when one is happening. That’s too late. It is valuable for your SOC team to train on attacks in a live-fire, simulated environment, so the team will be prepared to detect them and respond accordingly. Learn how cyber range training gets your team ready.
What Is Cyber Range Training?
Cyber range training is an important component of the learning ecosystem for security operations center (SOC) practitioners and teams. This article kicks off a blog series from TAG Cyber. It explains the basic elements of cyber range training in the context of the commercial Cloud Range offering.
