The partnership integrates Endace’s enterprise-grade EndaceProbe packet capture technology with Immersive’s realistic cyber exercises, enabling SOC teams to practice in environments mirroring live networks. Analysts gain hands-on experience in forensic packet analysis within minutes of entering Immersive’s scenarios, allowing them to detect, analyze, and respond to threats effectively. “We’re excited to collaborate with Immersive to improve cyber resilience. SOC teams learn rapidly when they can exercise with tools they use daily, against simulated threats that closely represent real-world attacks,” said Cary Wright, VP Product Management, Endace.
This collaboration offers several advantages for cybersecurity professionals:
Live Attack Simulations: Teams engage in realistic scenarios with EndaceProbe’s always-on packet capture, enhancing cyber readiness.
Skill Validation: Exercises test detection, response, and recovery capabilities under pressure, ensuring preparedness for real threats.
Data-Driven Insights: Performance benchmarks against industry peers help identify skill gaps and drive continuous improvement.
Faster Response Times: Hands-on labs teach teams to leverage forensic evidence, reducing threat resolution time. “Realistic, hands-on experience is critical to preparing cyber teams for today’s fast-moving threats. By integrating Endace’s enterprise-grade packet capture with the Immersive platform, we’re removing barriers to working with the tools professionals rely on every day,” said Thanos Karpouzis, CTO, Immersive.
The partnership moves beyond traditional training by offering gamified labs and real-world threat scenarios. Teams learn to maximize EndaceProbe’s capabilities, gaining deep network visibility and forensic analysis skills in a controlled environment. This approach ensures SOC teams can swiftly neutralize critical threats in real-world scenarios, supported by data-driven metrics to track progress and resilience.
By combining Immersive’s people-centric cybersecurity approach with Endace’s packet capture expertise, this partnership sets a new standard for SOC training. It empowers organizations to build a skilled, responsive workforce ready to tackle evolving cyber threats with confidence.
