Case Study: Cyber Defense Team (CDT) builds a tailored cybersecurity training program with Cybrary

How Cybrary Equips Cybersecurity Analysts to Defend US Military Networks Against Modern Threats

The Cyber Defense Team (CDT), a global task force protecting U.S. military networks, needed a better way to upskill its 25 analysts as they faced millions of alerts per day and increasingly sophisticated, state-sponsored threats. Cybrary helped address this challenge by providing more relevant, role-based training to replace generic development resources that weren’t meeting the team’s needs.

Using Cybrary’s assessments, curated career paths, video courses, and hands-on browser-based virtual labs, CDT built a tailored curriculum covering areas like Cloud, Linux+, Splunk, and Certified Ethical Hacking. With Cybrary, CDT created a culture of continuous learning, reported $200K in annual savings versus in-person bootcamp training, and achieved a 16X ROI while keeping the team prepared and under budget.
