A distributed systems simulator that creates intentionally vulnerable Kubernetes clusters in AWS for security training and attack scenario practice.
Checked November 2026.
Simulator is a distributed systems and infrastructure simulator that creates intentionally vulnerable Kubernetes environments for security training and testing purposes.
The tool provisions Kubernetes clusters within AWS accounts and introduces deliberate misconfigurations and vulnerabilities to create realistic attack scenarios. It supports multiple AWS authentication methods including environment variables and shared credentials files for infrastructure provisioning.
The simulator enables security professionals and developers to practice identifying and mitigating security issues in containerized environments. Users can develop incident response skills and learn vulnerability remediation techniques in a controlled setting without impacting production systems.
The tool integrates with AWS services to manage the necessary infrastructure components and maintains the capability to simulate various attack vectors targeting Kubernetes orchestration platforms. It provides hands-on experience with securing containerized applications and understanding common Kubernetes security weaknesses.
