Cyber Range Deployment

Unleash Internet-scale cyber war in a controlled environment to harden the resiliency of network and data center infrastructures, advance research and development, and train cyber warriors

Cyber ranges are critical tools for hardening the security, stability, and performance—the resiliency—of vital government, military, intelligence, and even commercial cyber infrastructures. Yet traditional cyber ranges require massive amounts of disparate equipment from multiple vendors, large numbers of skilled personnel, and long development and testing cycles. This costly and wasteful approach does not make sense in an era of flattened defense budgets and scarce human resources. More importantly, it simply cannot scale to address traffic volume and attacks that are multiplying in both quantity and complexity.

BreakingPoint Cyber Range Solution

BreakingPoint's compact cyber range device enables users to recreate Internet-scale cyber war in a controlled environment. Agencies and enterprises can use it to:

• Create an operationally relevant environment that precisely mirrors the Global Information Grid (GIG), enabling sophisticated simulation of real-world cyber conditions.
• Optimize and harden the resiliency of next-generation deep packet inspection (DPI) devices to carry out effective Lawful Intercept programs and related missions.
• Model and research advanced cyber threats including Stuxnet and botnet-driven distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
• Implement a scalable approach for training and certifying cyber warriors in critical Information Assurance (IA), Information Operations (IO), and Mission Assurance (MA) skills.
• Establish centralized command and control to monitor and manage a distributed network of remote cyber ranges.

Deploying the Evolved Cyber Range to Avoid Costly Delays and Infrastructure Development

Governments and enterprises, which make up 85 percent of the critical IT infrastructure in the United States, are turning to BreakingPoint's cyber range devices to harden defenses and develop the skills of cyber warriors and IT professionals alike. The BreakingPoint product's massive performance capabilities deliver the same conditions found in the world’s largest cyber ranges, including those from DARPA’s National Cyber Range, the Department of Homeland Security’s DETER test bed, and other ranges maintained by the defense industrial base. Like other innovations that have been miniaturized and simplified to put vital capabilities into the hands of the masses, the BreakingPoint Cyber Tomography Machine (CTM) provides this same functionality in a compact and cost-effective device. BreakingPoint products allow government organizations to replace costly and ineffective cyber range implementations and provide an ideal device for enterprises to harden their defenses, while BreakingPoint's SCOUT program trains and certifies IT professionals as cyber warriors.
