The Northern Ireland Department for Economy (DfE) has enlisted the support of Immersive Labs and Capita to pilot an initiative aimed at providing specialist, enterprise-grade cyber security training for 16 to 25 year-olds who may not otherwise have been able to afford it.
The scheme will initially aim to upskill 1,000 people and prepare them for roles in areas such as incident response, security and vulnerability analysis, and security architecture in large organisation, using Immersive Labs’ online training platform, which gamifies security training with browser-based tasks covering multiple aspects of the cyber world.
