- Individual Progress Reports
- Graded Quiz Scores (when applicable)
- Graded quiz results showing the student’s quiz answers. The option the students selected for each question is shaded green.
- We can set the passing grade for a standard 80% or at any number you wish, allow as many retakes as you wish of the quiz and reset the quiz so students can retake the quizzes.
- Lectures Completed with video completion heatmap
- The video heatmap indicates which parts of a video have been watched (green), re-watched (yellow), re-watched multiple times (orange) or skipped (white). Of course, we can require video completion before allowing the student to move to the next lecture.
- New heatmaps for each video watching session.
- The ability to reset lecture, video, and quiz progress.
Treadstone 71 even gives you the ability to manage your students. Your point of contact for the Treadstone 71 online training will be able to add new users, unenroll students, and view user information in the Users section of the School Administration.
We will also customize your course area with your logos, your documents (8 hours of document modifications included in the price), and your internal videos if so desired. This gives your course a more personal touch with standard corporate logos.
Not only can you manage your own students, but Treadstone 71 will adjust case studies to fit your organization, your vertical, and your industry. This provides greater relevance to you learning activities.
How do we apply the knowledge gained into an actual program?
We help you with this in two ways:
- Not only do you get unlimited access for an unlimited number of students for two years, but if you act within the next 120 days, Treadstone 71 will provide access CyberIntellipedia-our online knowledgebase wiki. This wiki is an online system for collaborative data sharing built and used by Treadstone 71 to aid in building Cyber Threat Intelligence programs while establishing intelligence sharing and communities of interest.
- The Treadstone 71 Cyber Intelligence Training Courses led to the establishment of CyberIntellipedia, a wiki consisting of multiple sections covering strategic planning, policies, procedures, templates, taxonomy, examples, dossiers, finished intelligence, estimative intelligence, open-source tools, adversary research, process flow diagrams, reporting, analytic tools and methods, threat intelligence TTPs, and more. From job descriptions and C-Suite presentations to cyber intelligence maturity models and threat matrices.
- CyberIntellipedia aligns with the Treadstone 71 Cyber Intelligence Training Courses including aspects of cyber intelligence tradecraft and cyber counterintelligence tradecraft. The wiki follows the intelligence lifecycle providing in-depth documentation for each aspect of the iterative process. We continue to enhance and build CyberIntellipedia including adding a historical cyber adversary component covering attacks, adversaries, their methods, tactics, techniques, and procedures indexed for rapid search.
- CyberIntellipedia delivers the tools necessary to build a sustainable program. The wiki gives users access to twelve years of effort demonstrating proven success for cyber threat intelligence strategies, operational efficiencies, tactical methods, and technical alignment.
- Organizations pay hundreds of thousands of dollars over years of labor to establish what is in the Cyber & Threat Intelligence Wiki - CyberIntellipedia. With guidance and time-based direction, clients can build a complete intelligence program, educate stakeholders, staff, and leadership, without the usual massive outlay for time and materials, and commitment to constant consultant change orders.
- By acting within the next 120 days to subscribe to the Treadstone 71 training, you will also receive four weeks of consultative support over the two-year period. We will assess your intelligence program status, help you apply the learning, assist you with the structure of your cyber and threat intelligence strategic plan, and provide a detailed project plan and maturity roadmap. Since this is four weeks over two years, we can assess where you are and deliver locally relevant goals, objectives, and measurable target outcomes.

Treadstone 71:
We founded the company in 2002 and started creating cyber personas and infiltrating al-Qaeda sites collecting information and sharing it with various US-based organizations in 2004. In 2009-10, we started teaching Cyber Intelligence, Cyber CounterIntelligence and Cyber Crime courses at the master’s level at Utica College where we established the intelligence program. After three years of teaching at the academic level, we switched to the commercial space honing the courses to CIA/DIA style tradecraft as aligned to the cyber environment using the skills acquired in 2004. Since that time, we have continued to update the courses using real-world case studies as part of the training.
We have kept the company purposely small and now offer the training courses (www.treadstone71.com/cyber-intelligence-trainingan... www.cyberinteltrainingcenter.com) as well as Cyber Threat Intelligence maturity assessments, strategic and program planning, active research, collection, and reporting. We also perform Threat Intel Platform assessments, selection, and rollout activities for clients. We have clients in the US, EU, Australia, and Asia with active proposals in the Middle East. My personal background is as an Arabic Linguist (USAF / NSA), Russian Linguist, and CISO financial services, government contracts, insurance, and cybersecurity vendors. We have also acted as a critical resource for government CISOs in the past authoring their agency strategic plans, program plans and responding to Congressional inquiries on their behalf.
