Driven by the power of innovation and the constantly evolving cyber threat landscape, CyberEDU was built from day one as a specialized training environment powered by a proprietary cyber-range-as-a-service technology. From the very beginning, our mission was to deliver effective, success-driven training journeys that help individuals and teams across the cybersecurity industry build real, applicable skills, faster.

As cybersecurity workflows evolve, so do the ways people learn. AI has already proven its ability to dramatically increase productivity across technical fields, and cybersecurity is no exception. To stay true to our mission of accelerating learning and maximizing outcomes, we are introducing a new capability that removes friction from the training process itself.

CyberEDU users can now leverage AI to navigate the platform faster, increase productivity, and get quicker results from their cybersecurity training journey.

This is made possible through CyberEDU’s official MCP Server, an intelligent interface designed to streamline platform interaction and accelerate learning without compromising depth or realism.

Why productivity matters in cybersecurity training

AI-driven productivity gains are no longer a distant promise.

In software development, for example, studies by GitHub and independent researchers show that predictive AI assistance enables up to 55% faster task completion. The impact extends beyond coding. In cybersecurity, experts highlight clear benefits from using AI, including 74% faster threat detection, 67% improved predictive capabilities, and a 53% reduction in errors.

It’s only natural to expect that, if productivity increases in real-world operations, it should increase during training as well.

CyberEDU’s mission has always been clear: to deliver practical skills, faster, through hands-on experience. 

Integrating an MCP Server is a natural step toward that goal, allowing both beginners and professionals to focus on learning and practicing, not on navigating menus or platform overhead.

What is the CyberEDU MCP Server?

The CyberEDU MCP Server acts as an AI-powered control layer between users and the CyberEDU platform.

Think about how Google’s “AI mode” changed the way we use traditional search engines. Instead of manually searching, filtering, and clicking through results, we ask directly and get immediate answers.

The MCP Server brings that same experience to CyberEDU.

Instead of navigating the platform manually, users can ask AI to interact with CyberEDU on their behalf.

What can you do with the CyberEDU MCP Server?

With the MCP Server, CyberEDU users can:

  • search for labs and challenges instantly;
  • ask AI to help solve or guide them through challenges;
  • browse categories and content faster;
  • check which tenant is currently selected;
  • switch tenants via AI commands;
  • clear sessions and credentials;
  • manage platform context without manual clicks;
  • get flag information and submit flags during CTF competitions;
  • and much more!

TL;DR: less time browsing, more time learning and practicing.

As a quick example, once this new feature went live, one of our teammates explored it right away. Here’s what they got:

A complete and always-updated list of supported actions is available in the official documentation.

Open source by design: you can add more functionalities to the CyberEDU MCP Server

The CyberEDU MCP Server is open source, allowing all active users to contribute and add new functionalities whenever needed.

Simply add new methods, and the CyberEDU MCP Server will automatically discover and expose them.

The best part is that no additional configuration or changes to the MCP Server code are required.

This makes the CyberEDU MCP Server flexible, future-proof, and easy to adapt to new training workflows, fully aligned with your personal working style and approach to learning.

If you want to add a new functionality, you can check the steps in the official documentation.
