Discover Role-Based Cybersecurity Solutions for Your Team

▼ Summary

– Immersive launched its AI-powered Lab Builder feature to enhance cyber skills through customized labs and learning experiences, supporting its PIBR (Prove, Improve, Benchmark, Report) approach.
– The Lab Builder includes an AI agent for real-time lab generation, offering up-to-date threat scenarios and application security exercises to improve team readiness.
– Cyber leaders underinvest in skills development despite rising threats, with only 39% of their time spent on cyber resilience; Lab Builder addresses this gap.
– The feature provides two lab types: Theory Labs for foundational knowledge and Practical Labs for hands-on simulations, enabling tailored learning paths and compliance alignment.
– Lab Builder integrates with Immersive One’s platform, offering structured skills development, real-world practice, and measurable cyber readiness metrics.

Cybersecurity teams now have a powerful new way to develop critical skills through customized, role-based training solutions. Immersive has unveiled its latest innovation, the AI-powered Lab Builder feature within its Immersive One platform, designed to help organizations rapidly upskill their workforce with tailored, hands-on learning experiences.

This cutting-edge tool supports the Prove, Improve, Benchmark, and Report (PIBR) methodology, enabling cyber leaders to craft realistic simulations for offensive, defensive, and secure-coding scenarios. Given that human error contributes to over 80% of breaches, costing businesses nearly $4.88 million per incident, the demand for continuous skills development has never been higher. Yet, many organizations allocate just 39% of their cybersecurity efforts to training and resilience-building, a gap Lab Builder aims to close.

Thanos Karpouzis, CTO at Immersive, emphasizes the platform’s agility: “Our AI-enabled Lab Builder delivers hyper-relevant training that mirrors real-world challenges, giving teams the practical experience they need to respond effectively.”

These labs can be combined into multi-activity scenarios, providing a scalable, enterprise-grade solution for measuring and improving cyber readiness.

Lab Builder follows Immersive’s recent AI Scenario Generator, which automates threat simulations for crisis drills. Together, these tools create a continuous, evidence-based training ecosystem, now available on the Immersive One platform.

For cybersecurity leaders, this means faster, more effective workforce preparedness without the traditional overhead of manual lab creation. The result? Teams equipped to counter threats before they escalate into costly breaches.
