Many AttackIQ customers use the vast library of knowledge we’ve built in AttackIQ Academy to help grow their cybersecurity industry knowledge, skills, and abilities.  Managers often direct their team to take advantage of certain courses on AttackIQ Academy to enhance their industry knowledge.  Courses like Foundations of Operationalizing MITRE ATT&CK have transformed how security teams operate, but other than self-reporting, managers were unable to see if their teams were actually completing the training they had assigned.  On top of that, tracking historical team training metrics is a manual process requiring spreadsheets or other systems that aren’t really convenient.

A Dashboard for Team Learning

The new AttackIQ Academy Enterprise dashboard gives security managers a bird’s-eye view of their team’s training activity.  No longer will you have to rely on Bob from the SOC to email you his course certificate – now you can see the data in real time and see detailed information about the learning assessment for each course.  Key metrics on the dashboard include:

  • Overall course progress – Gives an aggregate sense of how far along your team is coming across our entire course catalog. Who will be the first to 100%?
  • Course completion rates – Can help you quickly spot how many courses individual team members have finished and identify any courses that still need to be completed. This can help you see who is keeping up with their training and which team members may be falling behind.
  • Average exam scores – Tell you how well your team is absorbing the material, which may help you determine if they need remedial training or a mentor who is doing well in their course work. The dashboard displays average final exam scores for your team, showing the quality of learning, not just the quantity.
  • Individual learner progress – allows you to drill down into each employee’s learning journey. You can view individual team members’ course progress and their exam scores, all in one place.  This means you can congratulate Alice for acing her latest exam, or coach John if he’s struggling in a module.

Today, the dashboard is view-only – a first iteration focused on giving you hard data.  Think of it as a real-time report card for your team’s education from AttackIQ Academy.

Solving the “Who’s Doing What?” Problem

Until now, keeping tabs on employee training in AttackIQ Academy was a manual process.  Managers often had to rely on self-reported updates, sporadic certificate emails, endless spreadsheets, or having to ask their AttackIQ Customer Success Manager for the information.  This approach not only ate up time, it also left plenty of room for oversight.

AttackIQ Academy Enterprise’s dashboard eliminates the guesswork:

  • Time savings: Instead of sending reminder emails or chasing people down for status (Where is that DM thread on Slack?), you can check the dashboard and get answers in seconds.
  • Accountability: When team members know their progress is transparently visible to their boss, it adds a healthy level of accountability. You can now use the dashboard to trust but verify the academic progress of your team.  Your analysts are more likely to finish that course on the Foundations of Cyber Threat Intelligence when they are aware you can see whether it’s done or not.
  • Better team readiness: Ultimately, this visibility ensures your whole team is actually building the skills you need. You can be confident in your team’s newly learned skills in knowledge by verifying their progress and final exam scores.  This translates to a team that is uniformly prepared to face threats.  If someone hasn’t completed a critical course, you’ll catch it and can intervene early, closing knowledge gaps before they become security gaps.

These insights aren’t just for you; you’ll also be more easily able to communicate upwards or outwards about your team’s training.  Need to report to a CISO or auditor about your staff’s security training?  Now you can back it up with real data: “Our team has a 90% completion rate across all AttackIQ Academy courses with an average exam score of 88%.”.
