HTB leaves your team to fend for themselves.
TryHackMe guides them to excellence.
Your team deserves more than static labs and guesswork.
TryHackMe is the only platform that trains your team the way real attacks happen: live, adaptive, and at scale.
No commitment. No sales pressure. Just the platform.
AT A GLANCE
Six things no other platform offers together
Most training platforms claim to drive enterprise readiness, but can’t close the gap between theory and execution.
TryHackMe focuses on the realistic simulations, actionable metrics and live AI feedback for continuous improvement.
4 distinct simulators
SOC Simulator, Threat Hunting, Tabletop Exercises, and Live Breach Simulations. No other vendor offers all four.
Team-based by design
Multiplayer exercises, concurrent analyst participation, shared outcomes. Built for teams, not just individuals.
Real enterprise tooling
Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, AWS, Elastic, Metasploit, Burp Suite, and more - all browser-based, no VM required.
AI-powered learning
Behavior-driven real-time feedback based on how analysts approach exercises - not just right/wrong scoring.
Measurable outcomes
MTTD, MTTR, true/false positive rates, and escalation quality - mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and reportable to the board.
Always Current
New content ships constantly. If you have to think about when your platform last updated, your team’s not ready.

BUILT FOR TEAM READINESS
Four simulators.
One platform.
No other vendor comes close.
If training wasn’t mandatory tomorrow, would your team still open it?
TryHackMe is built to be the platform teams actually want to use. Because engagement is what turns learning into real readiness.
SOC Simulator.
Analysts investigate live alert queues using real-world SIEM tooling – triaging threats, responding to incidents, and practising escalation decisions. Managers get live visibility into MTTR and team performance. Built organically, not acquired.

Tabletop Exercises.
A real-time, multiplayer exercise where analysts, IR leads, and executives respond concurrently to MITRE ATT&CK and NIST-aligned injects. Participants vote on actions, the majority vote progresses the scenario, and every phase surfaces structured feedback on where the team’s judgement diverged from best practice.

Threat Hunting Simulator.
A scenario-based environment designed around real-world threat intelligence to build proactive hunting capability. Endorsed by a former Space Force Chief and CrowdStrike Falcon OverWatch Lead as the best training environment they've used.

Live Breach Simulation.
Stress-test your entire defensive setup under real incident pressure. Bespoke, customisable, and built for organisations that want to know exactly how their team performs before a real breach happens. Currently the only vendor offering this capability.
