Predict Security Talent Performance Before Day One

Replace gut feelings and credential worship with Cognitive Intelligence.
Barracks Intelligence Report maps how candidates think, adapt, and perform in Live Enterprise Environments under real-world pressure.

You're hiring blind

Traditional hiring processes for security talent are fundamentally broken. Here's what it's costing you.

01·The Cost

$24K+

A single security mis-hire costs over $24K when you factor in salary, onboarding, lost productivity, and re-hiring. Most organizations absorb this silently.

02·Resume Blindness

73%

Of security resumes overstate capabilities. Credentials on paper don't reveal how a candidate actually performs under pressure in a live environment.

03·Interview Theater

45min

The average technical interview lasts 45 minutes - not enough time to reveal cognitive patterns, problem-solving approaches, or strategic thinking ability.

Three steps to certainty

From deployment to decision in under 48 hours.

01

Deploy WarZone

Select from pre-built or custom enterprise environments - SaaS platforms, banking portals, e-commerce systems. Candidates are deployed into a live, evolving application with real vulnerabilities.

02

Intelligence Engine

Our proprietary behavioral algorithms forensically observe every action in real-time - how they approach problems, how fast they adapt, and how they communicate findings.

03
