Build Incident Response Capability Before You Need It.
SIRT.org Coaching turns security knowledge into real operational capability. When an incident hits, you know what to do because you have already practiced the decisions, pressure, and responsibilities involved.
How It Works
You step into realistic security situations and work through them as the person responsible for the outcome. The emphasis is on judgment, action, communication, and verification—not passive observation.
Enter the Scenario
Work with realistic incidents, vulnerabilities, attack activity, and operational constraints.
Make the Call
Analyze the evidence, decide what matters, and choose the next action under pressure.
Test the Decision
See the operational consequences and examine what the decision changed or missed.
Build Readiness
Turn repeated practice and feedback into confidence, clarity, and response muscle memory.
Choose Your Coaching Track
Each track focuses on the decisions, responsibilities, and operational pressures faced by a specific security role.
PSIRT Coaching
Run vulnerabilities from discovery to disclosure. Triage CVEs, coordinate with vendors, and make patch-versus-mitigation decisions that protect the organization.
Master: End-to-end PSIRT operations.
CSIRT Coaching
Respond during an active attack. Analyze suspicious behavior, make block-or-observe calls, and coordinate across teams when seconds count.
Master: Active incident response under pressure.
IR Manager Coaching
Run incident bridges, prioritize during chaos, delegate with confidence, and communicate clearly with executives and stakeholders.
Master: Leading teams through critical incidents.
IR for Executives
Understand incident dynamics, ask powerful questions, support response teams, make informed decisions, and communicate to the board with clarity.
Master: Strategic leadership during security events.
AI-Guided Learning
Use SIRT.org learning materials with the capable AI assistant of your choice. Each track follows a predefined learning experience with structured prompts, explanations, exercises, and review questions.
AI gives you space to ask follow-up questions, challenge assumptions, explore alternative decisions, and study each topic at your own pace. The structure remains defined by the coaching track; the conversation adapts to the learner.
