What is Infosec Skills
Infosec Skills is a cybersecurity training platform used to build and assess security skills through on-demand courses, hands-on labs, and role-based learning paths. It targets security teams, IT staff, and organizations running security awareness and upskilling programs. The product emphasizes practical learning with interactive exercises and skill assessments that can be mapped to job roles and security domains.
Hands-on labs and practice
The platform includes interactive labs and exercises that let learners practice security tasks rather than only consuming video content. This supports skill development for technical roles that need applied experience. It also helps organizations validate learning outcomes beyond course completion. Compared with general-purpose eLearning content tools, the lab-centric approach is more aligned to cybersecurity workflows.
Role-based learning paths
Infosec Skills provides structured learning paths aligned to common security roles and competency areas. This helps managers assign training that matches job expectations and reduces ad hoc course selection. It can support onboarding and ongoing professional development planning. The structure is typically more security-specific than broad LMS catalogs.
Skills assessment and reporting
The product offers assessments to gauge learner proficiency and track progress over time. Reporting can help identify skill gaps across teams and prioritize training investments. This is useful for security leadership that needs evidence of readiness and coverage. It provides more security-focused measurement than many generic training platforms.
Not a full LMS replacement
Infosec Skills focuses on cybersecurity content, labs, and assessments rather than end-to-end learning administration. Organizations may still need a separate LMS for enterprise-wide training, complex curricula, or multi-department compliance workflows. Integration requirements (SSO, user provisioning, reporting exports) can influence deployment complexity. Buyers should confirm how it fits alongside existing learning infrastructure.
Limited vulnerability management depth
Despite overlap with security operations training, the product is not primarily a vulnerability management system for asset discovery, scanning, prioritization, and remediation tracking. Any vulnerability-related capabilities are typically educational (labs/simulations) rather than operational controls. Teams needing production vulnerability lifecycle management will likely require dedicated tooling. This distinction matters for buyers evaluating it under vulnerability management software.
Content fit varies by role
Cybersecurity teams often include diverse roles (GRC, SOC, appsec, cloud security) with different depth requirements. Some organizations may find certain tracks too introductory or not aligned to their internal tools and processes. Custom content creation and deep tailoring are generally more limited than in specialized authoring platforms. Buyers should validate catalog coverage against their role taxonomy and required frameworks.
