use case: baselining

Identify competency strengths and weaknesses of all cybersecurity team members.

Most organizations don’t have the data to measure the current state of their cybersecurity teams. Without objective visibility into competency strengths and weaknesses, infosec leaders can’t close persistent skills gaps effectively or efficiently. But what if you could? N2K’s diagnostics-first approach generates data to tell you exactly where you should focus training and talent strategy initiatives—whether you choose to partner with us or with your current training provider.

use case: efficient spend

Ensure that your cybersecurity training investments are closing persistent skills gaps.

Without knowing exactly where skills gaps are, it can be hard for organizations to justify cybersecurity training spend. N2K’s training engagements begin with a diagnostic assessment to determine where personnel should spend their time, as well as what type of training will make the greatest impact. We focus on a consultative approach at the beginning of any training deployment to set goals and objectives aligned with the needs of the organization. Simply put: training becomes more purposeful.

use case: workforce development

Cross-skill and upskill internal talent to create a cybersecurity personnel pipeline.

The cybersecurity talent shortage has plagued infosec leaders for decades, but not enough is being done to solve the problem. Rather than relying on external sources of cybersecurity talent, organizations can take charge of workforce development initiatives. N2K’s diagnostics-first approach generates data about employees that might possess an affinity for specific cybersecurity job functions. With targeted training rooted in data, organizations can cross-skill and upskill current team members into cybersecurity roles.
