As cybersecurity teams face increasing pressure to keep pace with emerging threats, organizations are struggling to maintain the skills needed to defend modern environments.
To that end, according to the 2025 ISC2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study, 59 percent of organizations report critical or significant cybersecurity skills gaps, highlighting the growing need for continuous, hands-on workforce development.
To address this skills gap, SkillBit Labs offers enterprise and individual versions, which are built on the 20-minute rule, powering users to learn or practice a new skill in 20 minutes or less with gamified AI-enabled learning and development.
SkillBit Labs provides enterprise teams and individual practitioners with hands-on, scenario-based training that mirrors real-world cyber workflows.
SkillBit Labs’ core features in the gamified approach include:
Bite-sized learning experiences:
- Built for the modern security environment to reflect how busy professionals learn
- Cybersecurity exercises that train on a range of topics from foundational concepts to emerging areas like AI security
- Develop practical skills quickly in a self-paced format designed to optimize learning
Measurement dashboard:
- Gives organizations a clear, measurable view of their team’s readiness, while enabling individuals to track and pursue growth in real time
- Tracks streaks, first bloods, solves, rankings across all users, scoreboards, and unlocked certifications
“Cybersecurity professionals are busy. When they feel overworked and under-resourced, essential training takes a back seat just to keep up with day-to-day workloads. Our mission is to offer a platform where users can gain a skill in a short burst, such as over a lunch break or in between meetings, rather than wait for a multi-day simulation or training session,” said Thomas Rogers, co-founder and president of SkillBit. “SkillBit Labs empowers users with continuous, hands-on, and measurable skills development in a format that meets them where they are, especially when AI is challenging teams to secure environments in constantly evolving ways. It’s how we make cybersecurity learning more accessible while helping teams stay ready for what’s next.”
SkillBit has supported hundreds of users in delivering hands-on cybersecurity training and assessments. Organizations have used the platform to better understand team capabilities, identify gaps, and build targeted development plans. SkillBit trained professionals at 250+ enterprises and government organizations, including GitHub and Tenable.
