ThinkOn partners with CYBER RANGES and Canadore College to improve cybersecurity training

ETOBICOKE — Think On Inc., a cloud solution provider with a global data center footprint, is partnering with Canadore College in North Bay, Ontario, and global cybersecurity training technology company CYBER RANGES to deliver simulation-based cybersecurity training to students and IT professionals in North America.

The CYBER RANGES courses will try and teach participants to detect and overcome cybersecurity threats by presenting latest-threat informed scenarios that require real-time critical response. The CYBER RANGES platform allows administrators to monitor, measure, test, and train security skills, run large-scale capability validation exercises and cyber drills, and test new technologies and playbooks. Administrators can also run tests to enhance cybersecurity functionality.

“It’s never been more important to train skilled cybersecurity workers, who will have a huge impact on the future of both the technology industry and our increasingly digital society,” says Craig McLellan, Founder and CEO, ThinkOn. “By adding the CYBER RANGES courses and platform to our Cloud Framework Agreement, we’re helping to sharpen cyber skills and make training more accessible for the public sector.”

Governments, educational institutions, and other organizations can use the CYBER RANGES simulations to test and grow the skills of IT professionals and take a value-based approach to their hiring practices.

ThinkOn is a cloud security broker that can sell its cloud-based data management services to support both Federal Government Sensitive (PBMM) workloads and workloads from all other levels of public sector entities in Canada.

CYBER RANGES is a workforce development platform developed on cloud technology and delivered over public or private cloud.
