Infosec Skills is well suited for continous learning in cybersecurity for small or big teams, also is a good fit in order to prepare for recognized international certifications in cybersecurity like for example CPTE (Certified Penetration Testing Engineer), but I believe it could get better adding more cyber ranges in a CTF fashion.

Infosec Skills provides a good content resource for IT and security related job roles. Any IT or security related job role will benefit from the courses offered. The videos and the way the content is brought across is quite helpful and makes learning easy. I would recommend to anyone in the IT and security space.

The onboarding process has been quite productive throughout with the best team. The customer support team is able and ever on alert when requested to assist. It has simple user interface which is not the case with other similar platforms. The training modules are easy to understand and put into practice. It meets the set threshold and complies with company principals.

The smoothness of Practice Labs in infosec skills is a lot better than any other labs I have used and it does not crash as often. It also has a wide variety of courses in multiple specializations which I have not see offered anywhere else

Does a good job of getting professionals the CEUs and training needed for certifications in multiple fields. Doesn't appear to have any advanced metrics to determine how a person is doing within the field (Post-test data metrics).

The boot camp was planned accordingly, and had the right amount of time to go over and review the material. I would recommend breaking up the class over a weekend. For CISSP, the amount of information to ingest is a lot and can be overwhelming. I felt at day 5, I just needed not so much of a break but time to go back and review what I just learned.

Infosec Skills was instrumental In acquiring my certification. The instructors for the courses I have attended have all been very knowledgeable and helpful. They always had knowledge over and above what was presented in the course and gave many examples of real-world situations that were applicable to the material. Their goal has always been to make sure that you learn the material, can apply it to situations in real life and make sure you receive your certification.

Anyone seeking an IT certification, particularly from ISC2, ISACA or another security focused organization, will find these offerings a great resource. For someone trying to build a specific program to train their people (e.g., elements of cybersecurity, network management, system administration), it's a little tricky to find and combine available courses and/or career paths, but the end result is great.

When having to go into the field in order to gather digital evidence for cases, there are a lot of moving parts in the field and the only tangible standard is the skills that I got from Infosec [Skills]. There are a lot of different proprietary DVR's and each one seems to be more specific than the last. With the variety of technology that businesses or even private citizens use to keep an eye on things, it proves to be difficult to keep abreast with all of the things that people utilize. The skills that I learned from the infosec [Skills] course have assisted me in ensuring that the information that is being collected is being done in a forensically sound manner that ensures item and data integrity, which can be hard [to accomplish] in an environment where there are numerous variables surrounding digital footprints.

Infosec skills platform has updated course content with the latest industry trends. It was very cost effective for me.

The biggest isssue i have with infosec skills was, they do not have android / IOS app. Apart from it i would suggest them to more focus on flash cards based study so that student would be able to remember certain difficult terms.

Infosec [Skills] does offer a wide range of services that help me. The skills I learned in the CCFE/CCFA course have been invaluable and the environment that welcomes discussion on different aspects of the materials that are being covered in class is very insightful. Also, the ability to connect to other people in the field of which you are looking to get into or [are] already in is always a plus. I think that the ability to get into a shorter-length class that really focuses [on] the main tenants of a particular course is helpful as a refresher, or even as a prep for the actual test.

Infosec Skills is great for organizations that don't have a ton of resources to put into continuous training but have the desire to keep their teams as educated as possible. To that end, those organizations also have to be willing to dedicate the time to their teams to actually use the program. For larger organizations where the certifications really matter, the Boot Camps provide relatively short, but effective training and certification.

The boot camp CSSA training and exam was the right amount of depth for our needs and the instructor was very knowledgeable. The security approaches taught were relevant and very applicable to the OT environment and allowed us to upgrade our current skills and use what we had learned almost immediately. I would recommend this training to all OT staff.

I feel the classes offered by Infosec [Skills] are best suited for professionals who [want] to take the "next step" in their careers. If you are a help desk employee who [wants] to get their CCNA and become an engineer, then this is an excellent way to get there quickly. The material is given in such a way that it really sinks in for the long term.

I think with the recent pandemic, having quality training for those of us that had to purchase it out of pocket was great. Everything worked flawlessly and I got the training I was looking for without the huge price tag like some other vendors have. The labs could be more detailed for those areas that might be new to those people who are looking at getting into something different and training in a field that has more possibilities for them.
