Training Courses

Built by practitioners. Taught by practitioners.

The threat landscape moves fast, and AI is only accelerating it. Keeping pace means investing in not just technology, but the people and processes behind the technology. SpecterOps instructors are active practitioners — conducting engagements, building detections, and publishing research, then bringing those findings directly into the classroom. You’ll get hands-on with practices being used in real engagements today.

Training-RealExperiences

Built on real experience

Learn practical topics from front-line practitioners

SpecterOps training is built around our specialty: understanding the adversary. Our courses cover both foundational knowledge and forward-looking skills, grounded in the tactics, techniques, and procedures that real threat actors are using today.

Whether you’re building detections, running red team operations, or hardening your identity environment, our curriculum is designed to close the gap between where your team is and where they need to be.

We offer live courses (both in-person and virtual attendance), on-demand, and private training options, with custom curriculum development available for teams with specific needs.

CyberRanges

Cyber Ranges for AI

Our enterprise-scale Cyber Ranges for AI provide rigorous, realistic environments for evaluating frontier model capabilities against complex, multi-step attack scenarios. Built by the same practitioners behind our offensive security engagements, they go significantly beyond what traditional CTF platforms offer in scale and complexity and are trusted by the AI Security Institute as foundational to their research “Measuring AI Agents’ Progress on Multi-Step Cyber Attack Scenarios.”

Enterprise-scale CTF ranges

Built by practitioners who run real offensive security engagements, our capture the flag (CTF) ranges reflect proven attack paths from actual client environments. Significantly larger and more complex than traditional platforms, they mirror real enterprise networks across diverse technology stacks. Fully managed and turnkey, our ranges are used by organizations worldwide for team upskilling and security team recruitment.
