Our story

The story of Infosec started the old-fashioned way: a book written by our founder. The popularity of The Shellcoder’s Handbook drove interest and necessary awareness of ethical hacking and software vulnerabilities — a new and taboo topic at the time. The interest led to multiple requests to teach boot camps on the software exploits covered in the book.

In 2004, taking learnings from teaching cyber professionals in the field, the Infosec team reinvented how cybersecurity training software looked. Our goal was to breathe life into the stale security awareness and technical team training through hands-on learning elements proven to improve retention and engagement.

The result? Infosec Skills and Infosec IQ were created, helping organizations mitigate risk with role-guided cyber training for every employee.

Today, Infosec is part of Cengage Group and is the only cyber training provider with role-guided training for the entire workforce.
