REDSWARMS: Cyber Security Training System

As the world becomes more digital, cybersecurity becomes ever more vital. To anticipate this demand in talent, the University of New Hampshire has a cybersecurity club and team that fosters growth in students by training them to face real-world scenarios through competitions. However, building these mock networks for training is currently manual, time-consuming, and error-prone. REDSWARMS is a system designed to facilitate the automatic creation and configuration of small-scale enterprise networks to more quickly perform those security training scenarios and competitions. It features virtual infrastructure using VMware’s platform for managing a network of virtual machines as well as an automated deployment pipeline with Ansible and Ansible AWX. With REDSWARMS, the cybersecurity team can stand up brand new networks for training in a matter of minutes, allowing students to spend less time configuring and more time learning.
