Most aspiring hackers learn in a vacuum, testing an insecure vm in isolation which is a great way to start, but it can lead to a mentality that all vulnerabilities are bad, must be removed, and any company that has a vulnerable system is going to be hacked. This mentality does tend to temper with time and experience but I wanted to build a learning platform to demonstrate how companies defend their networks and assets.

I wanted to make a gamified platform that would so how these defensive tools can protect even vulnerable systems.

How it works
The attacker connect to the APBs wifi, and are given a subnet to attack, there are flags on all the machines in the APB even outside the 'target' machines, again like in the real world everything could be a target, the only rule is no DOSing or bringing machines down and no attacking other attackers. if the defensive tools catch the attackers, LED lights will flash red and they will be disconnected for 15 mins.
