ThinkCyber was created with the goal of providing advanced cybersecurity training and fostering a new generation of highly skilled professionals. Our unique approach to education is built on the principles of in-depth research, hands-on training, and real-life simulations derived from the founder's experience in the Defense Forces around the world.
Founded in 2016 by Mr. David Shiffman and his brightest students, ThinkCyber initially specialized in creating practical exercises and textbooks to provide hands-on training for law enforcement agencies. The company's value proposition was elevated by offering forensic investigations and penetration testing services, ensuring that their training materials were grounded in real-world application and experience.
Recognizing the limitations of classroom learning, Shiffman led ThinkCyber's research team to develop a pioneering system that could generate scenarios grounded in real-world events, thus equipping students with practical knowledge and real-time capabilities. Another key requirement that arose was the need for cyber units to monitor their personnel's progress and assess their strengths and weaknesses. This critical feature would allow team leaders to make informed decisions, assigning the right personnel to suitable missions.
