CYRIN training is sold on a subscription basis, ranging from 4 to 12 months. All CYRIN subscriptions come with two free labs: “Getting Started with CYRIN” and “Web application Security Analysis using OWASP-ZAP”. All new CYRIN courses that are added to the training platform during a subscription period will be made available to subscribers at no additional cost.

CYRIN training has three levels: 1) skills development labs, 2) individual and team exercises, and 3) realistic cyber-attacks where trainees are required to identify the cyber-attack and then mitigate the attack. Most labs, exercises, and attacks require about two hours to complete.

All CYRIN labs, exercises and attacks happen within a virtual environment. Each trainee or student gets their own virtual instance of a lab, exercise or attack, allowing training to be self-paced and available anywhere at any time.

In order to meet specific training objectives, CYRIN subscriptions are sold on a packaged basis. That is, groups of CYRIN labs, exercises and/or attacks are recommended and bundled to meet the individual needs of the student. Examples are:
