Overview
AttackIQ Academy was launched to accelerate the practice of threat-informed defense and arm security practitioners with current, practical cybersecurity skills. The Academy offers entry-level and advanced cybersecurity training with modularized curriculum and hands-on cyberrange labs for realistic exercises. Practice scenarios give students the skills to recognize threats, understand attackers’ methods, and quickly close potential gaps.
The COVID-19 pandemic introduced most businesses to unprecedented challenges, including forced remote work policies. During this time, AttackIQ Academy has been a valuable resource for cybersecurity professionals, enabling them to protect their businesses from threat actors and cyberattacks. Courses and learning paths are offered at no charge for the greater good of the cybersecurity community. Courses are eligible for (ISC)2 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits.
Following is a sampling of testimonials from Academy participants.
Tom Needham, Director Cyber-Security Operations, Cyber Threat Action Center, Abbott
“The AttackIQ Purple Teaming course was an excellent primer on what it takes to get a Purple Team up and running with clearly defined processes to support a long term program. I was impressed by the instructor’s depth of knowledge and experience. I recommended this to my team already and would recommend to all security practitioners interested in improving cyber defense.”
Kenny Tan, Senior Consultant, Cybersecurity Agency of Singapore
“AttackIQ has done a fantastic job by giving back to the community by having these cybersecurity courses to the masses in times of covid-19. This platform offers students with the advanced cybersecurity knowledge and best practices to help secure their organisation in a structured way. I have took the Foundations of Operationalizing MITRE ATT&CK, Introduction to FIN6 Emulation plans and Foundations of Purple Teaming. These courses really widen my knowledge even further for my current project. Kudos to the AttackIQ team and hope to see more courses on Cloud security!”
