USING HYPERVISORS TO CREATE A CYBER POLYGON

Cyber polygon used to train cybersecurity professionals, test new security technologies and simulate attacks play an important role in ensuring cybersecurity. The creation of such training grounds is based on the use of hypervisors, which allow efficient management of virtual machines, isolating operating systems and resources of a physical computer from virtual machines, ensuring a high level of security and stability. The paper analyses various aspects of using hypervisors in cyber polygons, including types of hypervisors, their main functions, and the specifics of their use in modelling cyber threats. The article shows the ability of hypervisors to increase the efficiency of hardware resources, create complex virtual environments for detailed modelling of network structures and simulation of real situations in cyberspace.
