Getting Started With Cyber Ranges

As cyberattacks have grown from occasional front-page headlines to daily occurrences, the attention paid by organizations to secure their products and infrastructure has predictably increased as well. 

It’s a safe bet that most organizations rely on a small group of selftaught team members driven by decades of interest, passion, and hard work. These are clearly desirable qualities but also qualities that indicate numerous missed opportunities for more efficient training — and training of others who may be equally capable. 

Add to the equation that even entry-level cybersecurity jobs require experience in a significant number of topics including subsets of Software Security, Computer Science, Software Development, Networking, Writing, and Communication. Organizations such as Cybersecurity Ventures are projecting 3.5 million unfilled jobs worldwide by 2021.

Throughout this Refcard, we will help readers quickly ramp up on the rapidly evolving training mechanisms known as cyber ranges. This will include a history of the technology, benefits to learners, key features, and most importantly, guidance on where and how to access a live cyber range to enhance your skills.
