Abstract
Rapid progress in the development of information technology has led to a significant increase in the number and complexity of cyber threats. Traditional methods of cybersecurity training based on theoretical knowledge do not provide a sufficient level of practical skills to effectively counter real threats. The article explores the possibilities of integrating simulation environments into the cybersecurity training process as an effective approach to improving the quality of training. The article presents the architecture of a simulation environment based on a cluster of KVM hypervisors, which allows creating scalable and flexible platforms at minimal cost. The article describes the implementation of various scenarios using open source software tools such as pfSense, OPNsense, Security Onion, Kali Linux, Parrot Security OS, Ubuntu Linux, Oracle Linux, FreeBSD, and others, which create…
