Find out how your defences fail before an attacker does

A cyber test range is a high-fidelity replica of your real environment. A place to attack, train, and prove your defences under genuine pressure, with zero operational risk. We design, build, and operate them for the organisations that cannot afford to find their gaps the hard way.

cyber test ranges

More than just a digital twin

Our Cyber Test Range (CTR) is a high-fidelity digital twin of your real environment, enriched with the data, users, tools, and monitoring that make it behave like the genuine thing.

Within Origin8tive's Quality Engineering practice, this is where defence readiness gets engineered in, rehearsed, and proven before it's needed.

When something goes wrong, you rewind the clock and run it again, with no operational risk. This demonstrates three things no plan ever can:

How your tools react to an event
How your people react
How your process holds up under pressure

Using a selection of tools and automation techniques from our Stratum8™ suite of products, we will design, build and enrich your dedicated Cyber Test Range.

Stratum8™ engineered for every layer of risk

Stratum8™ is the architecture layer of cyber resilience. Where decisions, coordination, and response are designed and executed in real time.

Our layered cyber simulation platform goes beyond infrastructure and tooling to test how people, decisions, and processes perform under real-world pressure. First we recreate your entire organisation in a controlled environment. Then we run realistic attack scenarios through it, and measure how your teams and systems respond in a disaster scenario.

how it works

How we design, build and operate your custom range

We design, build, and operate bespoke ranges for training, live testing, product validation, and red team operations, so your team can rehearse against real threats in a place that is safe to break.

01
We scope what matters

We work out which parts of your estate actually drive your risk, your training need, or your validation goal. You build only what counts.

02
We build your range with Stratum8

Using our own product set, we provision a high-fidelity replica of those systems, at whatever scale you need.

03
We train, test, and validate

Your people exercise against real threats. When something breaks, we rewind the clock and run it again, until you are ready for the real thing.

Why IT MATTERS

What CTR can do for your team

You would never train a heart surgeon on a healthy heart. A range lets you rehearse the bad day, find the gaps, and fix them, long before they cost you anything.

Exercise & rehearse

So your people are ready before an incident, not during a real one.

Validate products

Prove the technologies you've bought actually deliver what they claim.

Train continuously

Persistent environments that stay live around the clock, so your team build skills safely.

Sustain your estate

Test patches and changes before they ever reach production.

Prove resilience

Validate your systems hold up under conditions you can't simulate any other way.

Trust physical & OT

Plug Operational Technology systems straight into the range alongside red team operations.
