Cybersecurity Workforce Gap
ISC2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study (2024)Choosing the right SOC training platform depends on your career stage and goals. For those just starting out, SOCSimulator's free tier provides a production-grade SIEM console, 10 investigation scenarios mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK® framework, and progress tracking. Analysts preparing for job interviews or looking to sharpen their triage speed benefit most from the Pro plan, which adds unlimited scenarios, real-time Shift Mode with SLA pressure, and three security tool consoles (SIEM, XDR, Firewall). Educational provides the same organization capabilities to academies and institutions, including team management, cohorts, learning paths, analytics, custom scenarios, and the organization API. Academies use a 14-day evaluation with 10, 25, or 50-seat packs; universities and other institutions use contract terms. Owner portal access does not consume a Pro training seat, while instructors and learners need assigned seats.
