FRAMEWORKS
The ACE-T Core Certification bridges the gap between knowledge acquisition and real-world application, offering a holistic approach to cybersecurity competency assessment.
At Antisyphon Training, our mission is to prepare cybersecurity professionals for the real challenges they’ll face on the job. That means going beyond multiple-choice tests and delivering training that is immersive, practical, and hands-on.
We also recognize that today’s organizations require skills aligned with industry standards. That’s why we’ve mapped our classes and the ACE-T Core Certification to the NIST framework and DoD 8140 job roles ensuring your learning journey provides both technical skills and alignment with these expectations.
This dual approach, real-world challenges paired with framework alignment, means that:
- Students gain confidence knowing their skills reflect standards and practical application.
- Employers see proof of ability tied to frameworks guiding federal and industry needs.
- The community benefits from professionals who are both job-ready and standards-aware.
At the core, our goal is simple: deliver realistic training experiences while keeping your efforts aligned with the frameworks driving today’s cybersecurity workforce.
