The anywhere, anytime, accessible courses are geared for training without travel. The courses are either on demand, mentor driven, on site, or self-study. Students receive innovative and engaging training on the most relevant material at the right time. “Our courses offer a comprehensive interdisciplinary understanding of the scope and gravity of threats to U.S. interests in cyberspace along with methods to understand and counter our adversaries, “says Jeff Bardin, Chief Intelligence Officer for Treadstone 71. “Treadstone delivers hands on live data collection, denial, deception, and analysis activities that challenge each student with intensive online cyber and intelligence education. It is real world experience with an edge.”
Treadstone 71 expects that the course offerings will enhance the educational experience of each student developing the skills essential to see the big picture while analyzing each data point in order to anticipate and predict the timing and origin of cyber threats.
“Anonymity (sock puppets), infiltration, bias, and perception management are a few of the topics we cover with our students,” claimed Bardin. “The courses are designed to provide hands on practical experience with theoretical examples; they are a virtual manifestation of a physical tradecraft.”
The Cyber Shafarat 2012 initiative will greatly accelerate the effort of filling the skills gap. It will also bring new energy to Treadstone’s longstanding effort to educate learners across the United States and around the world.
