Immersive Labs Acquires Snap Labs to Power Cyber Simulations With New Depth and Realism

Immersive Labs, the company enabling organizations to continuously measure and optimize the human cyber capabilities of their entire workforce, announces the acquisition of Snap Labs. The transaction brings a new level of realism to organizations looking to develop cyber knowledge, skills and judgement, providing them with the ability to build multi-player simulations customized for specific environments and roles.

The acquisition underlines the need to develop human capabilities which reflect the nuances of each specific organization for everyone from Executive to Technical teams. By developing cyber knowledge, skills and judgement tailored to unique factors such as technical environments and compliance requirements, cyber risk is reduced more effectively.

The newly integrated platform will enable this by allowing customers to run labs and cyber crisis exercises in a cloud-based replica of their own organization featuring specific vendors. This also provides the ability for technical teams to work cooperatively in an expansive virtual environment as part of wider exercises involving executive decision makers.

Incorporated into the wider Immersive Labs platform this will further enable organizations to create a continuous cycle of human cyber capability improvement. With regular exercising, and evidencing against internal and anonymized peer benchmark data – the cyber knowledge, skills and judgement of the entire workforce can keep pace with risk – allowing them to be used strategically, for the first time.

James Hadley, CEO of Immersive Labs, said, “From day one we have believed in the power of immersive experiences. Whether you are a CEO wrestling with the wicked problems of a cyber crisis exercise or a malware analyst decompiling the latest APT, nothing is better for building and evidencing cyber knowledge, skills and judgement.

“The acquisition of Snap Labs doubles down on this, allowing customers to build better cyber workforces with richly detailed realistic experiences pinpointed to the risk they face. We welcome the team to Immersive Labs and look forward to building on our joint vision together.”
