Abstract
Methods and systems allow a user or operator to easily create cyber-training environments for use in a cyber-training system. In one embodiment, the environments are configured as missions. The missions may have a plurality of features, such as training objectives, a mission storyline, a mission order and mission objectives, relative to a mission environment. The mission environment comprises a virtual environment, such as defined by a virtual network having virtual machines or devices.
Claims19
A mission system for a cyber-training system configured to implement one of a plurality of different missions comprising:
- at least one user station, each user station comprising at least one display device, at least one user input device, a memory device, and at least one controller;
- and
- at least one mission server, said at least one mission server comprising:
- a processor configured to execute machine readable code;
- at least one communication interface which permits said server to transmit information to said at least one user station and to receive information from said at least one user station;
- a data storage device accessible by said processor;
- and
- a mission database stored on said data storage device, said mission database storing a plurality of missions, each mission having a plurality of variable mission parameters, wherein said variable mission parameters are associated with corresponding mission plugins, wherein one or more of the mission parameters of one or more of said missions are different from one another, and wherein when a selected one of said plurality of missions is selected and executed by said cyber-training system, said mission parameters associated with said selected mission cause said cyber-training system to generate a virtual cyber mission environment and an associated mission having features which vary depending upon said mission parameters.
