Why NERvE

Built for practice, not slide decks

Most security training is a video and a quiz. NERvE puts learners inside realistic situations and measures what they can actually do.

🎯

Cyber Range

Phishing Spotter, SOC Alert Triage, a branching Ransomware Tabletop, Network Segmentation and Log Hunt. Every decision is explained, so learners understand why.

📈

Cyber Readiness Index

A single 0–1000 score per learner and per team, built from completion, assessments, simulations, breadth and habit.

📰

Live threat intelligence

News and CISA exploited-vulnerability data refreshed every few hours, each story linked to the lesson that explains it.

🧰

15 in-browser security tools

Email header analyzer, URL inspector, CVSS calculator, log analyzer and more. Private by design: nothing leaves the device.

🧠

Learning that sticks

Spaced-repetition flashcards, daily challenges, streaks, badges and certificates keep learners coming back.

🇮🇳

India-first context

DPDP Act, CERT-In 6-hour reporting, UPI and OTP scams, INR risk calculations, alongside global frameworks.

New flagship programmes

Always fresh. Always hands-on.

Two programmes that keep learners coming back every week, and give security leaders something concrete to measure.

⚑ Weekly Bug Bounty

New case files every Monday, generated automatically

The platform's agent publishes a new weekly program on its own: realistic vulnerable code, cloud configs, pipelines and logs to triage, plus a live challenge built from CISA's newest exploited vulnerabilities. Learners find the flaw, rate severity and choose the fix, scored on the server with a public leaderboard and Hall of Fame.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

Everything procurement, IT and compliance teams usually want to know before a pilot.

Do learners need to install anything?

No. NERvE runs in any modern browser on laptops, tablets and phones. The security tools run locally in the browser, so pasted data never leaves the device.

Is the content safe for school students?

Yes. The school programme is protective and age-appropriate. It teaches students how to stay safe, spot scams and get help from trusted adults. Technical tracks are designed for adults and professionals.

Will it make us compliant?

NERvE supports the awareness and training requirements of frameworks like ISO 27001, PCI DSS and the DPDP Act by delivering the training and producing records. Compliance is decided by your auditor across all your controls.

How is progress measured?

Through lesson and lab completion, shuffled assessments, Cyber Range scores and the Cyber Readiness Index, a 0–1000 score that combines them.

Can we add our own policies or content?

Yes. Enterprise and Institution plans can include custom modules, for example your acceptable-use policy or an incident-reporting procedure.

Where is learner data stored?

Learners create accounts and their progress syncs securely to our servers, so administrators get live organisation dashboards. See our Privacy Policy.

How do we pay?

By UPI or bank transfer with a GST-ready receipt. There are no payment gateway fees, and every plan starts with a free 30-day pilot.

Can learners verify their certificates?

Yes. Every verified certificate has a unique ID and QR code that anyone can check on our public verification page, and learners can add it to LinkedIn.
