On September 23, Cyberbit, a provider of hyper-realistic attack simulation cyber ranges and SOC (Security Operations Center) readiness, announced the acquisition of RangeForce, a pioneer in cloud-based cyber ranges and scalable solo and team exercising. Headquartered in the U.S., the combined global company delivers one of the world’s most advanced operational cyber readiness platforms, powered by AI, grounded in realism, and designed to prepare teams for the reality of relentless threats. This acquisition reflects Cyberbit’s commitment to enhancing the capabilities of the cybersecurity professionals who serve as the frontline defense against those cyber threats.
“By joining forces, the companies create a seamless readiness journey, from entry-level analysts building skills and experience to advanced defenders confronting the most sophisticated cyber-attacks,” said Brian Pierce, CEO at Cyberbit.
“Cyberbit’s acquisition of RangeForce represents a significant leap forward in how organizations can prepare their teams for the realities of today’s cyber threat landscape,” said Darren Battistoni, managing director and co-head of technology opportunities at Charlesbank Capital Partners, Cyberbit’s financial sponsor. “By uniting two of the industry’s leading cyber ranges, we believe customers can now gain access to an unprecedented breadth of content and highly realistic training experiences built around the same tools and environments they use every day.”
RangeForce’s adaptive, AI-powered tutor delivers personalized learning, while the AI-driven content engine accelerates the creation of cutting-edge scenarios. The result is a living, evolving SOC readiness library that continuously evolves alongside the threat landscape.
“Cyberbit and RangeForce bring together two organizations deeply passionate about cybersecurity defender readiness,” said David Etue, CEO of RangeForce. “The combined company’s capabilities, paired with our recent advances in AI, position us to deliver experiences that ensure SOC and IR teams are prepared for sophisticated cyber-attacks.”
As boards demand proof of resilience and adversaries become more aggressive, CISOs can no longer afford to discover gaps after a breach. The combined platform spans the SOC to the boardroom, delivering AI-led, data-driven, and hyper-realistic attack simulations that security leaders can trust, the company said.
“Cyberbit and RangeForce joining forces marks a major milestone in cybersecurity readiness. As a partner to both companies, Carahsoft is thrilled to see this powerful combination come together with their vision to deliver this comprehensive, AI-powered readiness platform for SOC and IR teams,” said Alex Whitworth, Cybersecurity Solutions Vertical Executive at Carahsoft Technology Corp. “This collaboration enhances Carahsoft’s ability to provide innovative, integrated solutions, enabling the Public Sector and enterprises across the U.S. to strengthen their defenses against today’s most persistent and sophisticated adversaries.”
