Overview
Security Innovation is a pioneer in software security and literally wrote the book on How to Break Software Security. For more than 20 years, organizations have relied on assessment and training solutions from Security Innovation to secure software wherever it runs.
The company’s training solutions combine 250+ interactive modules, 125+ scenario-based labs, and 11 hands-on cyber ranges that use insecure software environments to hone security skills.
More than 300 companies and over 1 million participants have enhanced their skills with Security Innovation from Global 100 software companies to mid-size tech companies, to financial services firms and retailers.
Realistic simulations are an increasingly important component of software security training, and Security Innovation’s CMD+CTRL Cyber Range Program is unique in application security specific training. It is ideal for all skill levels and to help all stakeholders in the SDLC experience first-hand the impact of poor design, coding, and configuration.
Traditional secure coding training only covers a small fraction of activities and roles – leaving the majority of the SDLC at risk for attack. By focusing on individuals, organizations can upskill every role across the entire SDLC – not just those nearest to the code. Training solutions from Security Innovation help:
• Builders recognize how their mistakes are easily exploited, so they can incorporate security controls at each development phase.
• Operators maintain the availability of key services once software applications are deployed: configure servers, protect APIs, manage access, apply patches, and minimize information disclosure. Many challenges reinforce these key security principles that provide defense in depth.
• Defenders groom pen testers, red teamers, and vulnerability assessors with ranges that progress in difficulty level. Easier ranges spot potential talent by gauging their understanding of the OWASP Top Ten. Advanced ranges feature complex environments that force experienced staff to make interlinking decisions.
How we are different
Security Innovation’s approach to training is set apart from the competition with:
• Real-World Environments - Pre-configured environments representing web sites, cloud platforms, and complex mobile and Single-Page Applications (SPA) with rich API functionality. Technically sophisticated, the CMD+CTRL Cyber Range is cloud-based with nothing to install. Tools are useful but not required, and supporting assets ensure all skill levels can train.
• The Ability to Explore and Exploit Safely - Players find information disclosures, probe the tech stack, and search source code, URLs, and headers for clues. When an exploit is found, points are awarded by a sophisticated auto-scoring engine. Drop tables and crash servers without disruption – each player has their own instance and can reset at any time.
• Immediate Feedback and Benchmarking - The dashboard shows completed and unsolved challenges, hints used, and other player insights. The always-on scoreboard turns passive participants into determined competitors bursting with confidence.
