A sudden influx of evolved threats in the last few years has organizations rethink their cyberresilience efforts, and risk-proofing human elements across the board has become ever so relatable. Adding to that viewpoint is the new “workforce exercising” capability Immersive Labs has just rolled out.
Already available to all existing subscribers of Immersive Labs’ enterprise-grade cyberresilience platform, the capability is aimed at validating resilience across an organization for all roles against vital cybersecurity capabilities and best practices.
“Workforce exercising enables organizations to build cybersecurity skills and prove cyberresilience across all levels and roles,” said Max Vetter, vice president of cyber at Immersive Labs. “Amid (the current) threat landscape, leaders need confidence, supported by data, that their entire organization has the knowledge, skills, and judgment to thwart attacks.”
The platform, with the added capability, will feature a dashboard to enable security teams to check on the progress, timeline, and critical risk areas for each role and individuals across the organization.
Capability uses behavioral science for custom content
Workforce exercising enables organizations to build custom cybersecurity skills and prove cyberresilience across all levels and roles using behavioral science.
“The solution leverages behavioral science to offer employees relatable content and interactive labs to upskill vital cybersecurity capabilities and adopt best practices,” Vetter said. “As a result, CISOs and other cybersecurity leaders gain access to in-depth data and reporting on their workforce’s cybersecurity skills.”
