Tired of cybersecurity training that gets forgotten 20 minutes after the last slide? Cyber Investigation might have the answer. This platform takes a radically different approach: turning cyber awareness into a fully immersive detective game. The result? A 97% user satisfaction rate.
What Is Cyber Investigation?
Cyber Investigation is a cyber learning platform designed for companies that want to strengthen their employees’ security culture — without boring them. The concept is built on three core pillars.
1. Immersive Investigations
Employees don’t passively sit through a course. They step into the role of an investigator facing real cyberattack scenarios: phishing, ransomware, data breaches, fraud, identity theft. The “think like a hacker” approach drives engagement far beyond what traditional training can achieve.
2. Individual and Team Challenges
Once skills are built, it’s time for real-time challenges — solo or as a team. “Cyber battles” can mobilize an entire organization, creating healthy competition and positive reinforcement around good security practices.
3. A Dashboard for CISOs and Management
Security leaders get a dedicated analytics module: track results, identify the most at-risk profiles, map organizational cyber maturity, and even spot “cyber torchbearers” — the employees who naturally spread best practices to those around them.
Why It Matters in 2025–2026
Cybersecurity is still too often treated as an IT problem. Yet 90% of cyberattacks exploit human error. Training only your technical teams is no longer enough — every employee is part of the first line of defense.
The threats covered by Cyber Investigation reflect today’s real attack landscape:
- Ransomware
- Phishing and spear-phishing
- Data leaks
- Wire fraud (BEC)
- Identity theft
- Data destruction
The platform holds Qualiopi certification (training actions category) — a recognized quality mark that makes it eligible for funded training programs in France.
What Customers Are Saying
Real-world feedback speaks for itself. The Cybersecurity division of a major French bank calls it a pioneering awareness format that employees genuinely enjoy. At another company, the tool generates a real internal buzz and strong engagement across teams. A user from a well-known large group summed it up perfectly: “What a great investigation! Congratulations on this very enjoyable puzzle. Are more investigations planned?”
That last comment says it all: people ask for more — which is almost unheard of in mandatory training.
Who Is It For?
Cyber Investigation is designed for three distinct profiles:
- Non-technical employees: accessible, fun, practical training on everyday risks — at work and at home.
- Technical experts and developers: tailored learning paths focused on more advanced threat scenarios.
- CISOs and management: dashboards to track progress, justify investment, and demonstrate compliance.
My Take
The real strength of Cyber Investigation is that it understood something crucial: awareness training fails when it’s boring. By applying game mechanics — progression, challenge, competition, reward — to cybersecurity, the platform achieves something rare: it makes employees genuinely want to protect themselves and their organization.
For companies looking to go beyond the annual checkbox exercise and build a lasting security culture, this is well worth exploring.
