Nashville, TN — CyberMaxx today announced that it is the first to be named an Elite MSSP Partner with Cloud Range, the industry-leading cybersecurity simulation training solution that helps organizations reduce cyber risk. The designation comes after CyberMaxx completed a series of advanced, real-world, team-based simulation exercises reflecting a variety of cyberattack scenarios and complexity levels.
Much like flight simulators, Cloud Range’s simulation solution effectively prepares security teams to work together to detect and mitigate attacks, reducing the chances of a costly breach. An early adopter of the experiential-learning solution, CyberMaxx uses it to quickly and effectively develop the skills and capabilities of new team members and continue to upskill more advanced members given the increasing complexity of cyberattacks.
“The Cloud Range platform is a critical tool for our leadership team to evaluate the skillset of individual SOC team members and see firsthand how our teams of cyber first responders work together to tackle incidents. The ability to observe and evaluate those things on-demand, without having to wait for a real incident, is priceless,” said Jason Riddle, CEO of CyberMaxx.
“Having realistic training that allows our security operations team to conduct hands-on training is invaluable. Cloud Range gives us the ability to focus on common attack patterns, new threats, and vulnerabilities, along with an ever-changing cyber landscape. We have the flexibility to create a training environment that fits our current customers and focuses on their needs for security,” said Jon Matthews, VP, Cybersecurity Operations at CyberMaxx.
CyberMaxx partnered with Cloud Range to help ensure its cyber defense team is able to proactively prepare to protect customers against cyberattacks. Using its advanced cyber range platform, Cloud Range develops custom attack simulations using threat intelligence sources that map to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. CyberMaxx’s teams work together in the platform to detect, investigate, respond, and remediate live, simulated attacks, enabling them to improve their technical skills and abilities, as well as their communication and collaboration. The ongoing program creates muscle memory, which further prepares cyber defenders to act quickly and effectively during an incident.
“When a customer evaluates or engages with an MSSP, they can’t just ‘hope’ the MSSP is prepared to defend their mission-critical networks and data. They need to know it. Cloud Range’s Elite MSSP Partner Level ensures customers of participating MSSPs can be confident their service providers can actually do what they say they can do,” said Debbie Gordon, CEO of Cloud Range. “CyberMaxx’s ongoing partnership with Cloud Range not only empowers the team, but it also enables CyberMaxx to have concrete data that demonstrates cyber readiness.”
