Cybersecurity career plan · Squad
Squad is right if you are moving a 5-person team onto a survivor track together.
Squad is the 5-seat plan for cybersecurity and Applied AI teams pivoting into survivor tracks together. Each seat gets Operator-equivalent access across both portals. Manager dashboard tracks skill gaps, certification progress, and engagement across the team. Range leaderboards turn training into team practice. Self-serve onboarding playbook ships with every team.
Squad is for you if
- ✓ You manage a team of 5 cybersecurity practitioners (or aspiring practitioners) and you need to level them up together.
- ✓ You want a manager dashboard showing each team member's certification progress, Range performance, and skill gaps so you can have data-driven 1:1s.
- ✓ You want team Range leaderboards to drive friendly competition and shared practice.
- ✓ You want centralized billing instead of expensing 5 individual subscriptions.
- ✓ You want a self-serve onboarding playbook plus on-demand video walkthroughs to kick off the engagement on your own schedule.
Pick a different plan if
- → You are an individual learner. Pick Defender, Operator, or Frontier instead.
- → Your team has more than 25 cybersecurity learners. Pick Enterprise instead, Squad does not scale beyond 25 seats.
- → You need SSO, SCIM, or a custom DPA. Pick Enterprise.

How Squad actually gets used
A typical Squad team runs the cybersecurity skill games as a daily standup warm-up (5 minutes), targets 1 Range scenario per week per member, and uses the manager dashboard data inside their existing internal review cadence. About 80% of Squad teams ship 2+ certifications per member per year, measurably faster than ad-hoc training spend.
Squad questions and answers
Can I have fewer than 5 seats on Squad?
No. Squad is fixed at 5 seats minimum at $400 per month because the manager dashboard, leaderboards, and onboarding playbook only make sense at team scale. For 1-4 people, individual Operator subscriptions are the better fit. Squad starts paying off at 5 seats and beyond.
What happens when a team member leaves?
Reassign their seat to a new team member from the manager dashboard. The departing member's Range Credentials and Phishing Detector stats stay with them on a transferred individual account. Their team-level performance data moves to the team archive.
Can Squad members earn Range Credentials?
Yes. Range Credentials are issued at the individual level, they belong to the team member, not the company. This is intentional: when a team member changes jobs, their credentials go with them. Companies get credit for funding the practice; individuals get credit for completing it.
