A next-generation platform for Cyber Range-as-a-Service
Vittorio Orbinato
Abstract
In the last years, Cyber Ranges have become a widespread solution to train professionals for responding to cyber-threats and attacks. Cloud computing plays a key role in this context since it enables the creation of virtual infrastructures on which Cyber Ranges are based. However, the setup and management of Cyber Ranges are expensive and time-consuming activities. In this paper, we highlight the novel features for the next-generation Cyber Range platforms. In particular, these features include the creation of a virtual clone for an actual corporate infrastructure, relieving the security managers from the setup of the training scenarios and sessions, the automatic monitoring of the activities of the participants, and the emulation of their behavior.
