TryHackMe is a browser-based cyber security training platform, with learning content covering all skill levels from the complete beginner to the seasoned hacker.
Our co-founders, Ben Spring and Ashu Savani launched TryHackMe after realising the inaccessibility of the industry. Learning cyber security previously entailed a black-box approach with a lack of guides and challenges, leaving the industry incredibly tricky for people to break into and difficult for those already in-market to upskill continuously. This is where we come in!
Our Story
Accessible
The need for qualified cyber security professionals has never been greater. Cyber attacks are increasing, and so is the cyber security skills gap. Unfortunately, expensive courses and certifications makes it harder for individuals to get into the industry.
We created TryHackMe to make learning cyber security more affordable and more accessible, removing as many barriers to entry as possible. Hundreds of our training labs are completely free, there is no cost to sign up, and you can access TryHackMe purely through your browser almost anywhere in the world. We also support charities and initiatives such as TechVets and CyberGirls - helping underrepresented groups bridge into cyber.
Innovative Approach
Before TryHackMe, learning cyber security took a theoretical approach that couldn't be put into practice in real-world scenarios. It left learners with many gaps to manually fill, and it wasn't engaging.
We give users their own personal virtual machine - deployable by a click of a button. This allows learners to actively hack and defend machines in practice, following the steps they will take in real-world scenarios and job roles. We bring forward immersive training, transitional to the needs of the market and more easily retained in learning by doing.
Content Variety
TryHackMe is for everyone. We have training labs suited to the complete beginner with zero coding experience, and zero cyber security experience. We can be your first touch in the market and hold your hand through getting to grips with the basics as you upskill.
On top of that, we have training suited to the seasoned hacker - someone who has worked in the industry for years and is looking to stay on top of evolving threats and tools, and challenge themselves.
With red, blue, and purple team content for all skill levels, we can take you through every stage of your cyber learning journey.
Sparking Curiosity
With training for all, we're here to spark intrigue in cyber learners. We're passionate about training the next generation of cyber and bridging the skills gap the world currently faces.
We work with schools, colleges, and universities to give students practical experience in hacking and defending machines - in a gamified, engaging environment that makes people want to learn more.
Community Driven
As a fully bootstrapped company without investment, we have experienced incredible growth due to filling a niche in the market that people truly needed. Our community is at the heart of our platform and are the core of everything we do. We tailor our training to our community to make sure we're as relevant and enjoyable to use as we have been since day one.
