CMD+CTRL Security, a leader in software security training, has announced three additions to its award-winning Base Camp platform: the Dark Money cyber range, Skill Lab 2.0, and AI-Powered Post-Event Reporting.

  • CMD+CTRL Security announces three additions to its Base Camp platform.

  • Dark Money is the company's 12th immersive cyber range.

  • Dark Money features 33 security challenges across 8 attack surfaces.

  • Skill Lab 2.0 offers browser-based IDE access with instant automated feedback.

  • AI-Powered Post-Event Reporting puts an AI agent on every engagement.

  • All three offerings are available now on the Base Camp platform.

Dark Money, CMD+CTRL's 12th immersive cyber range, is a fully functional digital banking platform featuring 33 security challenges across 8 attack surfaces aligned to the CWE Top 25 and OWASP Top 10. Participants trace laundered funds through transfers, loans, bill pay, and a live prediction market called the Oracle. Dark Money debuted at DEF CON 34, where an eight-year CMD+CTRL veteran topped a field of 160 players to win one of only 10 Black Badges awarded across 81 contests at the event.

Skill Lab 2.0 reimagines CMD+CTRL's hands-on labs from the ground up for speed. Learners now launch straight into a browser-based IDE preloaded with vulnerable code and a mission list, with instant automated feedback and continuously autosaved progress. The first wave covers 24 of CMD+CTRL's most-used labs across five languages: Java, Python, C#, C++, and Node.js.

AI-Powered Post-Event Reporting puts an AI agent on every engagement. It reads an event's raw export, maps exposure to the frameworks auditors already use, benchmarks a cohort against anonymized industry peers, and produces a client-branded skills assessment, complete with framework mapping, peer benchmarking, and per-learner development plans, in place of a bare leaderboard. Every figure is traceable to a source row; nothing is inferred, and gaps or mismatches are flagged.

Executive Perspective

"These three releases reflect what our customers need: realistic challenges, faster labs, and reporting that turns a single event into a real training plan," said Jeff Emig, CEO of CMD+CTRL Security.

The releases cap a strong year for CMD+CTRL, which recently earned fourteen badges in G2's Fall 2026 report and two 2026 Global InfoSec Awards from Cyber Defense Magazine.
