Collaboration Brings Together Immersive Cyber Exercises and Real-world Packet Forensics to Upskill SOC Teams and Strengthen Cyber Resilience
Endace, the authority in Packet capture, and Immersive, the leader in people-centric cybersecurity, announced a technical partnership designed to strengthen cyber readiness and accelerate threat response. By combining Endace’s forensic packet capture technology with Immersive’s technical exercises and simulations, this collaboration empowers SOC teams to build critical skills, improve investigation speed, and reduce response times.
Through this integration, organizations can upskill their security teams in a realistic, controlled environment using the same tools they rely on in live networks. Analysts gain hands-on experience using EndaceProbe for forensic packet analysis and deep network visibility, within minutes of entering a scenario in Immersive’s platform, allowing them to practice detecting, analyzing, and responding to real-world threats—something that isn’t possible with traditional legacy training.

“We’re excited to collaborate with Immersive to improve cyber resilience. SOC teams learn rapidly when they can exercise with tools they use daily, against simulated threats that closely represent real-world attacks,” said Cary Wright, VP Product Management, Endace. “With EndaceProbes integrated into the Immersive platform, teams can build skills in a safe environment and learn how to hunt for, and combat, even the most serious threats. When faced with a critical cyber situation, individuals can then act swiftly to understand and neutralize threats.”
Key benefits of the Endace and Immersive partnership include:
- Build and strengthen cyber readiness with live attack simulations that include packet forensics investigations using always-on EndaceProbe packet capture.
- Test and validate cyber capabilities under pressure, ensuring teams can detect, respond, and recover effectively.
- Leverage data-driven insights to prove capabilities, identify and close skill gaps, and continuously improve performance.
- Improve response efficiency with a workforce skilled in using forensic evidence to resolve threats faster.
- Learn to maximize EndaceProbe’s capabilities through hands-on, gamified labs and real-world threat scenarios.
- Measure team readiness with performance benchmarks against industry peers to inform cyber resilience strategies.
“Realistic, hands-on experience is critical to preparing cyber teams for today’s fast-moving threats. By integrating Endace’s enterprise-grade packet capture with the Immersive platform, we’re removing barriers to working with the tools professionals rely on every day,” said Thanos Karpouzis, CTO, Immersive. “This partnership enables organizations to prove and improve their readiness in a true-to-life environment, empowering teams to investigate, respond, and adapt with greater speed and confidence.”
