About the Game

Get to know the networking devices you only see in theory. Open up rack cabinets in the server room and inspect switch and router interfaces. Grab the RJ45 ethernet cables, scale up the ports, and experience firsthand that establishing physical connections is the first and most critical step in data transmission.

Log in to a virtual PuTTY console terminal heavily inspired by industry-standard systems. Master the authorization process using the `enable` command, and implement fundamental network management practices—such as VLAN configuration, secure remote access via SSH, and NAT protocols—by entering your own commands.

Learn to monitor network traffic and make the right calls during a crisis. Read anomaly signals from the Cyber Threat Map, solve log analysis mechanisms, and apply the exact steps needed to protect the Server Farm within a realistic corporate scenario.

Grasp the logic behind security vulnerabilities. Examine popular exploit types like SQL Injection and XSS to understand how a system can be hacked. Gain a defense-oriented (Blue Team) cybersecurity mindset by applying security patches to close these vulnerabilities.
