Launched by Immersive Labs in June 2023, the Cyber Million program introduces a modern, practical approach to recruiting by prioritizing real-world skills, upskilling, and aptitude over traditional evaluation methods such as education, certification, and experience. Individuals over the age of 16 can register for the program and work through a compilation of hands-on exercises and labs to match the skill set requirements of open roles, including those that Arctic Wolf has added.

Arctic Wolf protects more than 6,000 customers across the globe via the Arctic Wolf Platform, which ingests, parses, enriches, and analyzes more than 5.5 trillion security events per week. With its open-XDR architecture, the Arctic Wolf Platform leverages advanced AI-algorithms combined with the company’s revolutionary Concierge Delivery Model to deliver game-changing noise reduction that turns thousands of daily alerts into an average of a single actionable ticket for customers each day.

"We are excited to join the Immersive Labs Cyber Million program to reduce barriers to entry for cybersecurity job seekers and uncover hidden talent through skills-first hiring," said Mark Manglicmot, senior vice president, Security Services at Arctic Wolf. "The program will allow Arctic Wolf to find passionate, skilled candidates who will have the opportunity to not only advance their cybersecurity career as part of ‘The Pack,’ but will also play a vital role in helping us achieve our mission of ending cyber risk.”

“We are thrilled to welcome Arctic Wolf to our Cyber Million program to fill vital cybersecurity roles,” said Kieran Rowley, director of Community for Immersive Labs. “Arctic Wolf is a cybersecurity leader on the forefront of the cyber skills revolution, and we appreciate the opportunity to join forces in this important work.”

Arctic Wolf joins a growing number of Cyber Million employment partners, including Accenture and BT.
