What is WarriorRange?

WarriorRange is an automation tool used to deploy virtual machines to a Proxmox node in the interest of hosting a Cyber Range. This website is designed to make the deployment process super easy from start to finish.

What is a Cyber Range​

A cyber range is a fully virtualized sandbox environment designed for IT training and testing purposes. Think of it as a specialized digital playground where professionals and students can develop skills in:

  • Cybersecurity
  • Ethical Hacking
  • Digital Forensics
  • Network Engineering
  • Incident Response

The primary advantage of cyber ranges is their ability to safely simulate real-world IT infrastructures and scenarios in isolated environments. Being completely virtual, these environments can run on minimal hardware—sometimes on a single system—while remaining highly customizable to replicate virtually any production environment or attack scenario.

WarriorRange: Automated Cyber Range Deployment​

WarriorRange is a specialized software solution that streamlines the creation and management of cyber ranges by interfacing directly with Proxmox, a powerful open-source virtualization platform.

Key Features​

  • Proxmox Integration: Utilizes ProxmoxAPIv2 for direct communication with the virtualization environment
  • Custom PowerShell Backend: Employs specialized modules and scripts to automate complex deployment tasks
  • User-Friendly Interface: Provides an intuitive WinForms GUI for simplified range configuration
  • Automated Provisioning: Creates virtual machines, user accounts, resource pools, and permission structures based on user specifications
  • CLI Capability: Scripts can run independently of the GUI on any OS supporting PowerShell 6.0 and above

Benefits​

WarriorRange dramatically simplifies the process of creating testing or educational environments within Proxmox, even for users already familiar with the platform. By automating the entire construction process through JSON-based configuration, it makes cyber range deployment accessible to a broader audience while maintaining full customization capabilities.

The application is designed to save time and reduce complexity, allowing educators, security professionals, and IT teams to focus on training and testing rather than infrastructure setup.
