Driving Cyber Readiness: ShieldRiser's C-SOC Platform Built by Nioyatech

Background

ShieldRiser set out to revolutionize cybersecurity training by offering a realistic, hands-on cyber range experience. To achieve this, the company needed a highly interactive and secure Cyber Security Operations Center (C-SOC) platform that could replicate real-world attack and defense scenarios for individuals and organizations.

The Challenge

ShieldRiser required a flexible and scalable environment capable of supporting complex simulation scenarios, threat emulation, and real-time incident response workflows. Existing off-the-shelf platforms were too rigid, lacked customization, and couldn't support the level of realism or automation needed for impactful cybersecurity training.

The Solution

Nioyatech designed and delivered a custom C-SOC platform for ShieldRiser, integrating secure DevOps pipelines, real-time threat simulation modules, and a scalable cloud-based architecture. The solution bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, enabling users to engage in immersive, safe, and controlled cyber training environments tailored to evolving threats.

"Working with Nioyatech was a great experience. They truly understood our vision for a SOC simulation and delivered a powerful, user-friendly application. The team was responsive, skilled, and easy to work with. We’re happy with the results and excited about future collaborations!”
