Cyviz & IBM

Transforming Cybersecurity Training for the Next Generation

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, the cybersecurity workforce is facing unprecedented challenges. The increasing complexity of cyber threats, coupled with a critical skills shortage, demands innovative solutions. To address this urgent need, Cyviz has partnered with IBM and Cloud Range to deliver cutting-edge cybersecurity training through IBM’s Cyber Campus, enhancing education for both students and professionals.

Overview

By combining IBM’s Cyber Campus, Cloud Range’s industry-leading cyber range solution, and Cyviz’s immersive collaboration technology, we are helping to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and real-world job requirements, ensuring that cybersecurity professionals are prepared for the challenges of tomorrow.

The Challenge

The global cybersecurity workforce gap is a pressing issue, with ISC2’s 2024 Cybersecurity Workforce Study highlighting a 4.8 million person shortfall. The need for hands-on training is more critical than ever, as businesses face evolving cyber threats like ransomware, AI-driven attacks, and supply chain vulnerabilities.

To address these challenges, IBM, Cloud Range, and Cyviz are collaborating to provide immersive, real-world simulations that equip students and professionals with the skills they need to defend against these sophisticated threats.

Virtual Cyber Range – The Heart of the Cyber Campus

The IBM Cyber Campus, powered by Cyviz and Cloud Range, offers a virtual cyber range that combines realism, scalability, and adaptability. This platform introduces live malware into controlled environments, replicating real-world attack scenarios that provide hands-on experience with advanced cybersecurity tools such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and SIEM platforms.

Key features

Realism: Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) capabilities simulate authentic networks, systems, and threats, with physical devices interacting with virtual environments.
Scalability: The platform supports diverse user groups and adapts to organizational growth and emerging threats.
Adaptability: Seamlessly integrates with industry standards like MITRE ATT&CK and accelerates deployment using automated configurations and realistic traffic generation.

Driving change, together

The partnership between IBM, Cyviz, and Cloud Range is a powerful force in the fight against the global cybersecurity workforce shortage. By integrating advanced simulation technologies, immersive environments, and cutting-edge training solutions, we are ensuring that the next generation of cybersecurity professionals is equipped to protect critical digital infrastructure, manage emerging threats, and stay ahead of attackers.
