Cybrary offers free MOOC courses in cybersecurity-related fields. It has grown a quick following, accumulating more than 175,000 users worldwide, according to the company.
“Our vision is to make Cybrary the largest and most influential online cyber security community,” cofounder Ryan Corey said in a press release. “One that is fueled by free learning and a robust job and resume market for tackling the industry skills and talent gap.”
