TRAINING AND BOOTCAMPS

Hands-on training from
the people who do it for real

Practical, expert-led training for security engineers, IAM administrators, and enterprise teams — covering DevSecOps tooling, Ping Identity, Keycloak, and Kubernetes. Fully remote. Real tools. And Game Days that test your team before an incident does.

Bootcamps

Build foundational and advanced technical skills

Expert-led, hands-on sessions delivered remotely with code and labs provided. Customisable to your team's stack and level.

DevSecOps Tooling
Standardised local development environments using Visual Studio and essential plugins. Streamline team workflows and eliminate configuration inconsistencies across environments.
Unix Fundamentals
Core Unix commands for IAM operations — diagnostics, automation, log analysis, and incident triage. Includes reusable debugging cheat sheets tailored to identity platforms.
Git and Version Control
Solid version control habits from staging to advanced branching strategies and merge conflict resolution — essential for GitOps-based IAM delivery pipelines.
Ping Identity AIC Configuration
Spin up the Ping AIC stack in minutes using scripting. Includes the Midships Cube local development approach for parallel team working without environment conflicts.
Kubernetes — Fundamentals and Advanced
Practical Kubernetes for IAM teams — deployment, monitoring, log tracing, and service networking in regulated environments using the patterns Midships uses in production.
Ping Identity AIC Scripting
Write and extend journeys and custom workflows for identity, authentication, and access control using the scripting patterns from real Midships Ping implementations.
Fully remote
Live instructor access throughout

Game Days

Simulate an incident before it happens for real

Midships Game Days put your team through live-fire incident simulations — realistic, high-pressure scenarios testing your ability to detect, diagnose, and recover from IAM breaches, outages, and security events.

Most teams find out how good their incident response is when something goes wrong. Game Days let you find out before that — in a controlled environment with a structured feedback loop and Midships engineers alongside your team throughout.

For regulated enterprises with SLA obligations, the cost of finding a gap in production is far higher than the cost of finding it in a Game Day.

Enhanced preparedness

Real-world threat and failure scenarios with structured feedback — teams leave incident-ready.

Improved troubleshooting

Better skills and system observability, reducing MTTR and avoiding SLA breaches when it counts.

Full-stack readiness

Engineers, service managers, and incident commanders — whole team knows their role.

Incident muscle memory

Rapid scenario spin-ups build the confidence that comes from having done it before.

Example scenarios

IAM breach

Authentication service compromise

Simulated credential stuffing against a live Ping or Keycloak environment. Team detects, isolates, and recovers under time pressure.

Production outage

Identity platform degradation

Cascading failure in the identity layer affects customer journeys. Team diagnoses root cause and manages communications.

Upgrade failure

Rollback under pressure

A version upgrade introduces unexpected behaviour. Team identifies the issue and executes a controlled rollback.

AI governance

Agentic AI out-of-bounds action

An autonomous AI agent attempts an action outside its authorised scope. Team detects the governance breach and investigates the audit trail.

Common questions

Training — FAQs

Do you specialise in Ping or Keycloak, or both?

Hands-on, expert-led training using real tools and infrastructure. Fully remote, with code and labs provided. Sessions are interactive — instructors are Midships engineers who use these tools in production client engagements.

Can Midships handle both delivery and ongoing operations?

A Game Day is a live-fire incident simulation testing your team's response to IAM breaches, outages, or security events. Midships engineers design and run the scenario, your team responds in real time, and structured feedback is provided throughout and after the session.

What is AI Governance and why does it matter now?

Security engineers, IAM administrators, DevOps and platform engineers, and enterprise IT teams. Game Days also involve service managers and incident commanders for cross-functional readiness.

Which regions does Midships operate in?

Yes. Bootcamps are tailored to your tech stack, skill level, and objectives. Game Day scenarios are designed around your actual environment and the incident types most relevant to your risk profile.

What industries does Midships serve?

Yes. Midships can design Game Day scenarios for AI governance — including agentic AI out-of-bounds action detection, governance engine failure scenarios, and audit trail integrity testing. Particularly relevant for enterprises deploying Icebreaker.

How does zero downtime delivery actually work?

Contact sales@midships.io with a brief description of your team, tech stack, and what you want to achieve. Midships will scope the right format and propose a programme. Most sessions can be scheduled within a few weeks.
