Why this program matters

  • Without mastery of Suricata, 70 % of network intrusions go undetected, according to Verizon DBIR reports.

  • A single breach costs an average of 4,5 million euros in direct losses, downtime, and remediation (IBM 2023).

  • Your company risks GDPR fines up to 4 % of revenue and a permanently damaged reputation, while your role as administrator or cybersecurity manager is directly threatened by these failures.

  • Each month without expertise in network surveillance exposes you to cumulative incidents representing thousands of hours lost and business opportunities destroyed.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Suricata training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
