What is a Cyber Range?

A Cyber Range is a controlled, interactive technology environment (similar to a fully functioning lab) where cybersecurity professionals can learn how to detect and mitigate cyber-attacks using the same equipment they have or plan to have in their organization. The range simulates the worst possible attacks on IT infrastructure, networks, software platforms and applications.

 

The Cyber Range provides rich environment simulations and hands-on training using defence and offence tools. With easy, flexible deployment and a complete content library, you can regularly audit your team’s readiness.

Solving the Cybersecurity Skills Gap

How to Take Advantage of the Cyber Range

To fully leverage the capabilities of cyber ranges, organizations should engage in comprehensive and continuous training exercises that simulate real-world cyber threats.

 

By immersing security teams in a realistic, controlled environment, participants can refine their skills in threat detection, incident response, and vulnerability assessment.

 

Organizations can also customize scenarios to address specific security challenges or industry-specific threats, ensuring that the training is relevant and impactful.

 

By using cyber range training, businesses can not only bolster their cybersecurity posture but also foster a culture of preparedness and resilience, equipping their teams with the knowledge and confidence to handle actual cyber incidents effectively.

The Process

Praise for the Cyber Range

The CATE Centre has been an outstanding tool for training, where we’ve been able to gain not only the theory, but also the practice in hands-on simulated environments. This centre is helping us not only keep up with cybercriminals, but stay one step ahead.

The Cybersecurity Assessment, Training, and Experimentation, or CATE, Centre is a partnership between ENFOCOM, Raytheon Canada, and The University of Calgary Faculty of Science. It’s a unique model that offers training and simulation to the private sector while also advancing research and innovation. The result is more safety and security for Alberta, Canada, and beyond.
