Circadence

Circadence provides cybersecurity training and skills development solutions using gamified learning approaches. The company offers cyber range training platforms that allow security professionals to develop and practice competencies in simulated environments. Their training methodology moves away from traditional classroom-based, lecture-driven instruction toward hands-on, gamified experiences designed to improve skill retention and measure performance. The company's solutions enable organizations to assess and develop cybersecurity competencies across the 33 distinct areas of cybersecurity work defined by NIST/NICE frameworks. Their platform, which includes Project Ares, provides measurable training outcomes that allow leaders to track skill acquisition, performance comparisons, and competency improvements among their security teams. Circadence targets both organizations seeking to train their cybersecurity workforce and individuals looking to launch or advance their cybersecurity careers. The company addresses the gap in traditional training methods by providing continuous, performance-based learning that can be conducted without requiring professionals to travel off-site or take extended time away from operational duties. Their approach emphasizes practical application of cybersecurity tactics and techniques through immersive scenarios rather than passive learning methods.
