🛡️ TACTICAL CYBER MINI-GAMES MATRIX

8 dedicated standalone cybersecurity simulations engineered to build offensive and defensive instinct. Click [i] on any mission card for a complete briefing on what the game is, how to play, and the core cyber lessons.

🚦
DEFENSE

Packet Gatekeeper

Manage perimeter firewall rules against streaming traffic. Inspect port numbers (80 vs 443, Telnet 23), TCP handshake flags (SYN Flood DoS), and DPI malicious payloads.

TAGS: L3/L4/L7 • FIREWALL • DOS • DPI
🎣
SOC TRIAGE

Phish Detective

Investigate suspicious corporate inboxes. Hover over headers to reveal typosquatting (paypa1.com), inspect deceptive link targets, and unmask weaponized double-extension droppers (.pdf.exe).

TAGS: SOCIAL ENG • SPF/DKIM • MALWARE DROPPERS
🔓
WEB / OWASP

SQLi Locksmith

Tuner and pop locked database vault chambers. Slot in tactical syntax payloads (' OR 1=1 --, UNION SELECT) to bypass auth, then switch sides to write parameterized prepared statements.

TAGS: OWASP TOP 10 • INJECTION • PREPARED STATEMENTS
🧱
VLSM NETWORKING

CIDR Block

Carve enterprise IPv4 address pools into non-overlapping subnets. Fulfill departmental host requests with optimal /25, /26, /27, and /30 prefixes without wasting scarce address blocks.

TAGS: CIDR • SUBNET MASKS • BROADCAST • IP PLANNING
🏰
LINUX EXPLOIT

PrivEsc: Floor by Floor

Climb the Linux server elevator from low-privilege www-data (UID 33) to Root Penthouse (UID 0). Exploit SUID binaries, world-writable cron jobs, and GTFOBins sudoers shell escapes.

TAGS: GTFOBINS • SUID • CRONTAB • ROOT ESCALATION
⏱️
DFIR / CSIRT

Ransomware Panic Room

Race against a live encryption clock following NIST SP 800-61. Isolate compromised subnet nodes, kill malicious LOLBin process trees (vssadmin), and sinkhole the kill switch domain.

TAGS: INCIDENT RESPONSE • LOLBINS • SINKHOLE • NIST
🔏
CRYPTOGRAPHY

Entropy Clash

Test passphrases against an enterprise 100 GH/s Hashcat GPU rig. Learn why 4-word passphrases beat complex short passwords, and how Bcrypt/Argon2 key-stretching neutralizes brute-force attacks.

TAGS: PASSWORD ENTROPY • BCRYPT • ARGON2 • HASHCAT
🕵️
CODEBREAKING

Cipher Relic

Decode tactical signals intelligence using a rotating Caesar dial, Vigenère polyalphabetic keyword matrix, and interactive symmetric XOR bitstreams proving (A ⊕ B) ⊕ B = A.

TAGS: CAESAR • VIGENÈRE • XOR STREAM • ONE-TIME PAD
