ThreatQuotient, a leading security operations platform innovator, has announced the availability of ThreatQ Academy Online, a new online training offering for clients and partners as part of ThreatQ Academy, ThreatQuotient’s training and learning solutions. ThreatQ Academy Online, which complements the company’s existing virtual and onsite instructor-led training offerings, provides access to modules available in a custom catalogue of online self-paced training.
ThreatQ Academy supports virtually any operational need and allows clients to gain a faster return on investment from the ThreatQ Platform. Modules currently available within ThreatQ Academy Online include: ThreatQ Security and Intelligence Operations, ThreatQ Platform Administration and Cyber Threat Intelligence Foundations. Additional modules will be made available as they are developed.
In ThreatQuotient’s 2022 research report, State of Cybersecurity Automation Adoption, senior cybersecurity professionals cited employee retention and closing the security skills gap as high priority issues. ThreatQ Academy directly addresses skills shortage concerns by enabling stronger staff retention and supporting existing employees with training that allows them to grow and gain skills for more security operations roles. Students using on-demand training via ThreatQ Academy Online will also gain immediate access to new content and features as soon as they are published. This provides a shorter lead time for gaining the most up-to-date information about ThreatQ’s tools in comparison to the existing virtual or onsite instructor-led training.
ThreatQ Academy students will be challenged to demonstrate comprehension of the course objectives through hands-on skills assessments, quizzes and other interactive exercises designed to mimic real-world scenarios. For select courses, students will be required to take an exam at the end of the course. Passing scores will receive a ThreatQ Certification of Completion.
