    An excellent choice to keep up with cybersecurity education

    The field of information security is constantly evolving as new threats are discovered each day. Our consultants have to keep up with new knowledge and techniques to conduct pentesting, vulnerability remediation, computer forensic audits, and so on. Traditional training in cybersecurity is very expensive, lengthy, and lacks practical experience. When we found Infosec Skills we were impressed with the many themes available in their library, their focus, and also with the price, which is very economic in comparison with other alternatives. Also, their cyber ranges allow our employees to practice the skills needed in a very practical way. We are very happy to count on Infosec [Skills] as an educational ally.
