Hands-on labs and training are table stakes for IT, especially cybersecurity training. Most concerning is the lack of safe ways to get experience with malicious attacks and techniques that attackers use to compromise environments. When cyberattacks happen at work, it is often the first time you’re seeing that data in that format, and it can be tough to identify. Security sandboxes provide a safe way to emulate attackers’ techniques in an automated fashion and allow you to use various tools to identify the attacks rapidly. Techniques are changing constantly, and the time and approval it takes to stand up a safe lab environment are monumental, if not impossible to accomplish in some organizations. Instead, security sandboxes spin up in minutes, are completely isolated, and allow you to rapidly gain experience. This kind of rapid learning loop helps learners keep up with a quickly changing field.

During this event, you will:

• Identify the requirements and constraints of exposing cybersecurity professionals to real attacks in a safe training environment.
• Understand how to implement a training framework that works hand in hand with your employees’ workflow, creating meaningful return on investment.
