Passive video training costs $8,000 a seat and teaches analysts how to pass multiple-choice tests, not how to hunt threats. Train your MSSP team under pressure with a Socratic AI examiner that forces them to defend their methodology.

Uh, the command line has -enc which means it's encoded... so it's probably obfuscated to avoid detection? And services.exe is the parent which seems weird but I'm not totally sure if that's normal or not.

Good instinct on the encoding — -enc is a classic obfuscation flag and you're right to flag it. Now here's what separates a good catch from a great one: services.exe spawning PowerShell is almost never legitimate. What would you specifically query in your SIEM to confirm that parent-child relationship is anomalous?

Built for Proficiency, Not To Check A Box.

Videos teach you what to look for; we train you on how to hunt. Our engine enforces rigorous methodology and hones the three exact skills every Tier 2+ analyst must master.

1. Grasping Context

Every alert is a puzzle. Our engine simulates full environments, forcing analysts to correlate raw logs, EDR telemetry, and network traffic before jumping to conclusions. A single event is noise; context makes it a breach.

2. Logical Reasoning

No multiple-choice questions. The AI Examiner uses the Socratic method, forcing analysts to analytically justify their hypotheses and defend their methodology against alternative, benign theories.

3. Attention to Detail

Dynamic injects and red-herrings train analysts to spot the needle in the haystack. If they miss a single anomalous User-Agent string or bizarre parent process, the AI will exploit their oversight.

The $8,000 Illusion of Competence

You are one bad weekend shift away from a headline.

Right now, you are paying top dollar for certifications and video courses. Your analysts sit back, watch a screen, and pass a multiple-choice test. You feel secure.

But when a real APT bypasses your EDR at 3 AM on a Sunday, a multiple-choice certificate will not save your network.

Your Tier 1s will freeze. They will miscategorize the alert to hit their ticket quota, or they'll wake up your burnt-out Tier 3 engineer who is already overworked. You aren't paying for training—you are paying a massive tax for an illusion of readiness.

How SOLAR Works

Assign a Scenario

Deploy one of 25+ real-world breaches (and growing) to your analysts, ranging from basic phish triage to complex lateral movement.

The AI Interrogation

The AI Examiner grills the analyst using the Socratic method, forcing them to find evidence, pull logs, and defend their hypotheses live.

Track Readiness

Access the Manager Dashboard to see exact readiness scores, spot skill gaps before a real incident, and export compliance-ready training data.

Socratic AI Engine

It never gives the answer. It forces the methodology.

Most platforms give a multiple-choice quiz after a simulation. SOLAR uses a fine-tuned reasoning model that acts like a relentless Tier 3 SOC Lead. If an analyst says "I'd check the logs", the AI demands to know which log, which field, and which query.

The IP is 185.22.41.9, so it's a Russian IP and definitely malicious traffic from the encoded PowerShell.

Are you sure? What legitimate business or IT administrative tools might also use encoded PowerShell commands communicating over 443? How would you prove this isn't authorized behavior before isolating the host?
