The realism of CMD+CTRL increases participant engagement and delivers the long-term memory benefits of “learning by doing." Coupled with assessment and reporting capabilities that offer insight into individual and overall team competencies, CMD+CTRL provides the type of training needed to overcome the security skills gap that most organizations face.
