Five seats · one operation

Five real cyber jobs, told as five cases.
You read the story — and you make the calls.

This isn’t a course you click through. Each seat is an immersive case on a real operations floor: colleagues, a live situation, a clock. The story carries you — and at every turn you do the actual work with your own hands: sever the intrusion, hunt the evidence, make the call. No lessons to read first, no test at the end. All five belong to one unfolding operation.

Field Basics — your first day
Never touched any of this? Spend your first morning learning how the internet actually works by doing it once, slowly — a colleague walks you through every step. Then every seat below makes sense.
Walk in
Operations Coordinator
The Floor
{{ring:60}}
Run a live watch floor. Incidents hit your board faster than your team can clear them — you decide who works what, and in what order, and brief the director on the one that can’t wait.
Triage, dispatch, and brief under pressure

Intrusion Analyst
The Watch Floor
{{ring:100}}
A live queue of alerts, most of them nothing. Read the raw evidence, learn what normal looks like, and find the one quiet signal that’s a real intrusion — before it phones home.
Triage alerts, spot the anomaly, escalate

Incident Responder
Containment
{{ring:0}}
An intrusion is spreading across a hospital network right now, on a clock that doesn’t wait. Cut it off with your own hands, save the evidence, and protect the systems patients depend on.

Malware Analyst
The Bench
{{ring:0}}
A suspicious file lands on your bench. Take it apart with real tools — read what it hides, spot the tells no clean program has, run it safely — and prove whether it’s a weapon.
Static analysis, sandbox, extract the indicators

Penetration Tester & Vulnerability Researcher
The Engagement
{{ring:0}}
You’re hired to break in — legally, with a signed contract. Recon the target, judge every exposed service, find the door everyone forgot, prove you could reach the keys — and know exactly where the law says stop.
Recon, find the way in, prove it, hold the scope line

Skip the story — sit straight down at the console.
Each case has a full working analyst console behind it. Jump into the raw tools and practice the hands-on part on its own, as many times as you like.

How it works

Built to feel like the job, not like a course.

Nothing to read first

No modules, no gated lessons. Every seat opens straight into the work; a colleague shows you the ropes in the moment, the way a real first day goes.

No scores, no ranking

You never get a grade. The situation itself answers you — the network reacts, your colleague responds, the incident resolves or doesn’t. Feedback is what happens, not a mark.

Someone to ask

Every seat has an expert beside you. Stuck? Ask them — they point you at what to look at, never hand you the answer. It’s a mentor, not a walkthrough.
