Abstract
The methods and systems disclosed herein generally relate to automated execution and evaluation of computer network training exercises, such as in a virtual environment. A server generates a training system having a virtual attack machine and a virtual target machine where the virtual target machine is operatively controlled by a trainee computer. The server then executes a simulated cyber-attack and monitors/collects actions and responses by the trainee. The server then executes an artificial intelligence model to evaluate the trainee's action and to identify a subsequent simulated cyber-attack (e.g., a next step to the simulated cyber-attack). The server may then train the artificial intelligence model using various machine-learning techniques using the collected data during the exercise.
