About ICSRange

Hands-on ICS security training for the teams that defend critical infrastructure

SectorNine is ICSRange's flagship training platform. We build realistic industrial control system ranges where security professionals practise offensive and defensive techniques against the same protocols, architectures, and failure modes they encounter in production.

Why we built this

Most ICS security training relies on slides, packet captures, or watered-down simulations. Operators leave those courses without the muscle memory to respond when a real adversary is moving through their OT network.

SectorNine gives teams isolated, full-stack industrial environments - domain controllers, historians, SCADA masters, PLCs, HMIs, and engineering workstations - connected by the same protocols that run power grids, water plants, and refineries.

Every lab is deployed on dedicated bare-metal infrastructure with nested virtualisation. No shared tenancy, no performance compromises, no artificial constraints.

What drives us

Realistic Training

Every range mirrors production ICS environments - real protocols, real vulnerabilities, real consequences.

Defence-First Mindset

Offensive skills sharpen defensive instincts. We train teams to protect the infrastructure that keeps societies running.

Industry Collaboration

Built with input from asset owners, integrators, and incident responders across critical infrastructure sectors.

Verified Skills

Per-player flags and completion certificates prove capability - no shared answers, no shortcuts.

Platform capabilities
