Cyberbit: A military approach to training cyber security teams

Cyberbit's Cyber Range systems get its name from a firing range -- a place where the military tests its weapons and the skills of its soldiers. Cyberbit argues that the same approach should apply to corporate security training: The ability to test the performance of security tools and people in real-world environments.

"It's not enough to buy security tools -- you need to make sure your people know how to use them and how to combine them against multi-stage attacks," says Adi Dar, CEO of Cyberbit.
A key capability of the Cyber Range is being able to create a virtual model of a company's IT network -- its routers, servers, and software, and then simulate many different types of attacks in real-time.

The shortage of cybersecurity experts in the US is a key driver of Cyber Range system sales as universities and colleges create new courses to meet high demand. Cybersecurity Ventures predicts as many as 3.5 million open cyber security jobs in 2021.
