Today, you will receive your login information for the CYBER.ORG Cyber Range at https://apps.cyber.org.
A cyber range is a virtual lab environment where students are able to simulate cybersecurity scenarios in a safe, protected online environment as they explore the back end of IT systems used by today’s industries.
Check your Teams for your username/password, and use it to log into the Cyber Range. You will use the Cyber Range to complete the Lab Activities and Case Study assignments throughout this course.
Please see Mister Marmolejo if you encounter any difficulties connecting to or logging into the Cyber Range.
We will begin using the Cyber Range with our first Lab Activity exploring the Linux Command Line Interface on Monday.
