Root-Me launches its Premium subscription service to support a new collaborative model in I.T security training

Computer security is a sector that continues to evolve at a proportional rate to the number of new uses, new technologies, new methods of cyber attack and defence. While skills in the field are already insufficient today, in the future several million positions will become open (3.5 million by 2021 according to Cybersecurity venture).

Faced with this deficit, and in order to offer learning adapted to today's realities, Root-Me now offers a Premium subscription allowing exclusive access to many challenges adapted to all levels and designed to teach the latest techniques in terms of IT security by training on up to date platforms (Windows, Blockchain, etc.).


Respect of collaborative values

As an association, free learning for all has always been at the heart of Root-Me, which is why access to this new subscription can be done in several ways:

• Creating and proposing new challenges (Contributing)
• By paying the sum of 10 euros / month or 5 euros / month for students (Subscribing)


Why is this the right model?

Because subscribing to a premium subscription means contributing to the community, either by providing more and more content, or by supporting investments related to the daily management of this content and the purchase of licenses and equipment, to provide up-to-date and powerful platforms.
