FAQs
Find answers to commonly asked
questions about Application Security
Can’t we just filter candidates by their level of certification?
You can, but certification alone does not prove hands-on expertise. By selecting the required labs for candidates, organizations can pin-point the exact skill set they need and this can sometimes come from non-traditional backgrounds.
How do Cyber Team Sim exercises work?
Cyber Team Sim exercises enable multiple individuals to be in an environment simultaneously, working together to complete various tasks as a group. Environments are more complex than those in our bite-sized labs, providing a greater depth of exercising realism covering numerous tools and techniques within one scenario.
Can candidate screening be used to promote internal cybersecurity talent?
Yes. Organizations can use the platform for both internal and external candidates. This enables organizations to identify hidden ‘gems’ within their own teams that might be looking for that next step in their career and want the chance to prove their capability.
What are the benefits of Candidate Screening?
- Increase speed of hiring by identifying qualified candidates quickly
- Eliminate unnecessary interviews with unqualified candidates
- Reduce bias in the hiring process by using data to identify the strongest performers
- Reduce talent acquisition costs by identifying internal cybersecurity talent
- Enables flexible, at-home skill verification
What are the benefits of Cyber Team Sim?
Candidate Screening enables applicants to prove they possess the required capabilities with a set of focused, browser-based exercises. Flexible, “any time, anywhere” testing eliminates the need for supervised, in-person evaluations, which can be burdensome and not an option for some candidates. All candidates for a given position are evaluated using the same criteria no matter their background, minimizing prejudice.
Organizations gain the ability to deeply understand the hands-on skills of each candidate by reviewing granular performance data, from accuracy to lab completion time, applicants can be compared based solely on their ability to perform the required tasks, minimizing bias and increasing diversity in security teams.
