The World's Leading Cyber Skills Development Platform

About us

Cyberbit was founded in 2015 to address an acute issue: Cybersecurity teams are not prepared to deal with cyberattacks. Conventional training forces teams to learn on the job with no clear measurement of progress and very real repercussions. With disproportionally large investments into cybersecurity tools, cybersecurity teams lack the knowledge, skills, and experience to effectively deploy their toolsets, leading to a continued increase in breaches, regardless of technology investments. To address this issue, Cyberbit developed the first-ever hyper-realistic cyber skilling platform, ensuring that cybersecurity professionals have the right knowledge, skills, and experience to excel. The Cyberbit Skills Development platform includes cyber labs, commercial tool training (Splunk, Palo Alto Networks, Checkpoint, Carbon Black & more) with attacker context, and live-fire cyber range exercises aligned to industry best standards (NICE Framework, MITRE ATT&CK, NIST) to ensure your team develops into top-tier cybersecurity professionals. Performance-based assessment using advanced network sensors validate your team’s skills giving you the confidence that your digital assets are fully protected. Cyberbit contains the world’s largest catalog of on-demand simulated attacks including Ransomware, DDoS, SQL Injections, Worms, Fileless Attacks, and more. Cyberbit is used by leading organizations around the world including Fortune 500 organizations, MSSPs, governments, and academic institutions to transform their cyber practitioners into elite cyber defenders. Organizations use Cyberbit to create a better SOC team by upskilling their cyber professionals, validating incoming candidate skillsets, rapidly onboarding new hires, and validating incident response playbooks. Cyberbit delivers over now million hours of training annually across 5 continents.

    Paris is gearing up for the #2024OlympicGames, but beyond the excitement lies a hidden threat: cyberattacks🛡️ This week Cyberbit ran an immersive crisis simulation for a key infrastructure provider in Paris to strengthen and prepare its cyber defense responses. This wasn't a simple one-day seminar, but months of live-fire training culminating in a full-scale simulation pushing the provider's team to the limit. Going beyond theory, Cyberbit crafted a realistic scenario with actors, media frenzy, and cutting-edge tech, mimicking an attack on critical Games infrastructure. The simulation tested the team’s incident response against cyberattacks, physical threats, and compromised IoT devices. Cyberbit even piloted Generative AI within the simulation, pushing the boundaries of cybersecurity training, and achieved remarkable results! 🦾

    The Olympic Games have long been a target of cyberattacks, and the 2024 Paris Games will likely face an unprecedented level of cyber threats. Our crisis simulation team at Cyberbit was on the ground in Paris this week, helping a critical infrastructure provider exercise their response plans. This effort started several months ago with live-fire training for their technical teams, and this week we took their executive team through a full scale, highly customized crisis simulation. I love working with customers that recognize the impact a comprehensive exercise program can make. It is also a lot of fun when we can bring in actors, media and a technology stack that can drive a response that feels real. Our focus in this simulation was on the movement of people through the games in an effort to evaluate cyber, kinetic and IoT impacts. It was also an opportunity to pilot Generative AI in a full scale simulation and the result was impressive. A big thank you to our team on the ground - Allison Ritter Justin Coker Walid ARFAOUI Richard Quignon Matthew D.

    Protect your organization from the next #APT29 attack.     Last week #TeamViewer was compromised by APT29, AKA #MidnightBlizzard or #CozyBear. APT-29 is linked to numerous high-profile attacks including the 2020 SolarWinds breach, and the Microsoft and HP Enterprise incidents in 2023 and 2024.     Be fully prepared for APT-29 and numerous other APT attacks by running #livefire exercises and labs simulating APTs BEFORE they strike.   These exercises provide information about APT groups, their TTPs, and actionable steps - so CISOs can build agile, highly-skilled, elite cybersecurity teams that know how to respond to this threat.    Are you SURE your team is fully prepared for the APT-29 threat?   Contact us to learn more on preparing your SOC and IR team for APTs>>> https://lnkd.in/dXbVys8
