Build it right. Defend it always.
Join architects and engineers worldwide shaping the future of cybersecurity through technical concepts, models, and our Defensible 10 Standards.
Why the Cyber War Center Exists
Cyber War Center is a modular cybersecurity simulation and evaluation platform. Its core simulation experience, CWC Sim, uses Mission Packs, Cyber Capstones, Cyber Battle Maps, Intrusion Vault catalogs, and Defense Toolbox components to support applied cyber training and team readiness evaluation.
Built for Builders
The Cyber War Center is designed for people and teams responsible for building, securing, and improving real systems.
What Makes the Cyber War Center Different
Architecture and Engineering First
Participants not only react to events. They design defensible systems and justify decisions through architecture diagrams, control selection, and measurable acceptance criteria.
Built for Infrastructure and Systems
Scenarios focus on securing infrastructure, platforms, workloads, applications, data flows, and identity boundaries across enterprise and cloud environments.
Defensible Artifacts, Not Guesswork
Every exercise produces structured outputs that can be reviewed, scored, and improved over time. Participants use the ISAUnited Mechanism Catalog and diagram stencils to ensure consistency, clarity, and technical rigor.
Opposing Force, Defensive Intent
The Center uses an opposing force narrative to create realism, urgency, and decision pressure. Adversary content is presented only to improve defensive reasoning and evidence-based design, not to teach intrusion tradecraft.
