About Us – FraseLabs

Our Mission

FraseLabs was developed to address the challenges faced by myself and fellow cybersecurity students throughout our university journey. The platform streamlines the setup and deployment of training environments, making advanced cybersecurity training accessible and easy to learn for everyone.

Problems Faced by Students

Laborious Setup Times: Students must download large virtual machine files and configure their local workstations. This process is time‑consuming and technically demanding.
Technical Barriers: Requires technical knowledge to set up isolated networks and environments. Many students struggle with troubleshooting and setup issues, hindering their learning.
Limited Accessibility: On‑premise infrastructure restricts access to training environments. Students cannot easily continue their learning from home or remote locations.
Scalability and Cost Issues: Scaling on‑premise infrastructure is costly and resource‑intensive. Upgrading hardware to meet growing demands is not sustainable.
Inconsistent Learning Experiences: Variability in personal hardware capabilities leads to inconsistent training experiences. Students with less powerful computers are at a disadvantage.
