Questions about CAER.
What CAER is trying to build, who it is for and what visitors can realistically expect today.
What is CAER?
CAER is a realistic SOC training platform in development. It is designed around investigating alerts and evidence inside one persistent fictional organisation, so learners can build context and practical judgement over time.
Who is CAER for?
CAER is primarily intended for aspiring and developing cybersecurity or SOC analysts, including beginners trying to gain practical experience before their first role.
Do I need previous cybersecurity experience?
The intended learning model begins with clear explanations and guided next steps, then reduces assistance as the learner develops. The complete learning system is still in development.
Is CAER available now?
No. CAER is currently in active private development and is not available as a public product.
Can I download CAER?
Not yet. The Trial Preview explains the intended direction, provisional editions and open product decisions; it is not a public download page.
When will CAER be released?
There is no announced release date. CAER will be publicly released when it reaches a standard suitable for public use.
Is there a public testing or registration programme?
No. Development is private, and there is no public early-access programme. Development updates will be shared when there is concrete work to show.
Will CAER be free?
The editions and prices currently shown are provisional planning only. They may change before release, and there is currently nothing to purchase.
Does CAER use real companies or people?
No. CAER uses fictional and synthetic organisations, identities, devices, infrastructure and activity for training. See the Simulation Disclaimer.
Is CAER intended for offensive hacking?
No. CAER focuses on cybersecurity education, SOC investigation and authorised training. Security techniques should only be used on systems you own or have explicit permission to test.
