A national cyber academy platform you can stand up and scale
CyCube gives governments, CERTs, and universities a turnkey platform to launch a cyber academy: a ready content library, hands-on labs, role-based pathways, AI personalization, and certification. Where training builds capability.
- Launch a full cyber academy without building it from zero
- Graduate job-ready defenders with verified, hands-on skills
- Scale role-based training across an entire national workforce
Trusted by national CERTs, governments & academies
The problem
Build a national cyber workforce, not just a course catalog
National cyber leaders and academy directors face the same gap: demand for skilled defenders far outpaces the pipeline, and slideware courses don't produce people who can actually work a SOC. Standing up an academy from scratch means years of content development, lab infrastructure, and instructor capacity you may not have. CyCube collapses that timeline. It gives you a single platform to launch and run a cyber academy at national or organizational scale, with a hands-on content library, real attack and defense labs, AI-personalized pathways, and measurable assessment built in, so you graduate people who are demonstrably ready, not merely certified on paper.
Capabilities
What your academy can train on from day one
SOC operations and monitoring
Hands-on labs in SIEM, log analysis, alert triage, and live monitoring so analysts learn the day-to-day work of a security operations center, not just the theory behind it.
Incident response and forensics
Guided and free-form labs that walk learners through containment, eradication, evidence handling, and recovery on realistic incident scenarios end to end.
Detection engineering
Train teams to write, tune, and validate detections against real attacker behavior, building durable detection capability rather than one-off rule libraries.
Threat hunting and malware triage
Proactive hunting exercises and malware analysis labs that develop the investigative instincts national defenders need to find what alerts miss.
Red and purple team exercises
Attack and defense simulations where learners practice offensive techniques and the detections that catch them, the same model used to launch full red-team and IR curricula.
Role-based pathways and certification
Structured learning tracks from entry analyst to senior leadership, with AI personalization and assessment that lets you certify readiness at each stage.
Framework alignment
Mapped to the standards national programs are measured against
Every lab, pathway, and assessment in CyCube is mapped to recognized international frameworks, so your academy aligns with the standards regulators, partners, and accreditation bodies expect.
MITRE ATT&CK
Labs and simulations are mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, so learners train against named adversary tactics and techniques and you can demonstrate coverage across the matrix.
NICE Framework
Pathways and assessments are aligned to the NICE Framework, letting you build role-based curricula around defined work roles and validate the knowledge, skills, and abilities each one requires.
Who it's for
Built for organizations standing up cyber academies at scale
Governments and national cyber agencies
Develop a national cyber workforce with a single platform spanning content, labs, pathways, and certification, aligned to international standards and ready to deploy across agencies.
National CERTs and CSIRTs
Raise operational readiness across your team and constituency with attack simulations, SOC upskilling, and assessment that maps directly to the threats you respond to.
Universities and academic programs
Give students hands-on, employer-relevant skills that bridge the gap between coursework and real SOC work, backed by labs and pathways you don't have to build yourself.
Training providers and academies
Launch and scale a commercial or instructor-led cyber academy on CyCube's platform, with the content library and labs to deliver courses across the region from day one.
Proof
Proven with national cyber programs
- Trusted by the national CERTs of Cyprus (CSIRT) and North Macedonia (MKD-CIRT) for upskilling and operational readiness
- Counts the Israel National Cyber Directorate and the Military Academy of North Macedonia among its government and defense users.
- Jointly launched a cybersecurity academy with SPAN d.d., and has run SOC, leadership, and malware-analysis programs with the Technion - Azrieli School since 2017.
More than a vendor, CyCube became a true partner. Together we launched a cybersecurity academy and delivered SOC, forensics, red team and IR courses across the region using CyCube’s simulations and practical labs.
Why CyCube
CyCube vs. building an academy the traditional way
| CyCube | Typical alternative | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to launch | Turnkey platform with a ready content library and labs, live in weeks | Years of in-house content and lab development before the first cohort |
| Hands-on practice | Real attack and defense labs in live environments | Slide decks, lectures, and at best a few isolated CTF challenges |
| Personalization | AI-personalized pathways adapted to each learner's role and level | One fixed curriculum for everyone, regardless of starting point |
| Standards alignment | Mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and the NICE Framework out of the box | Manual, ad hoc mapping if standards are addressed at all |
| Proof of readiness | Measurable, hands-on skills assessment and certification | Attendance records and multiple-choice quizzes |
FAQ
National cyber academy platform: common questions
What is a national cyber academy platform?
It's a single platform for standing up and running a cyber academy at national or organizational scale. CyCube combines a hands-on content library, real labs, role-based learning pathways, AI personalization, and assessment and certification, so a government, CERT, or university can develop a cyber workforce without building all of that infrastructure from scratch.
Can CyCube help us launch an academy from scratch?
Yes. CyCube has helped partners launch full cybersecurity academies, including a regional academy stood up with SPAN d.d. covering SOC, forensics, red team, and incident response. The platform provides the content, labs, and pathways so you can run cohorts quickly rather than spending years on development.
How does it support national cyber workforce development?
Role-based pathways aligned to the NICE Framework let you build structured tracks from entry analyst to senior leadership across many people at once. AI personalization adapts each learner's path, and built-in assessment lets you measure and certify readiness consistently across an entire workforce.
Is the training mapped to recognized frameworks?
Yes. Labs and simulations are mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, and pathways and assessments are aligned to the NICE Framework. This helps national programs meet the standards regulators, accreditation bodies, and international partners expect.
Which organizations already use CyCube at national scale?
CyCube is used by the national CERTs of Cyprus (CSIRT) and North Macedonia (MKD-CIRT), the Israel National Cyber Directorate, the Military Academy of North Macedonia, and academic partners such as Technion. These programs use it for upskilling, attack simulations, and operational readiness.
How is this different from a CTF platform or a course library?
CTF platforms test isolated puzzles and course libraries deliver passive content. CyCube combines real attack and defense labs with structured, AI-personalized pathways and measurable assessment, so learners build durable, job-ready skills and you can prove readiness, not just track attendance.
