U.S. and international defense leaders continue to emphasize the importance of representing realistic cyberspace conditions and conducting integrated cyberspace operations during exercises. Concurrently, governments, industry, and academia are rapidly developing potential solutions to these requirements. How well do trainers and exercise planners understand these solutions, leverage them to meet overarching mandates and their specific requirements, and incorporate them into legacy plans, processes, and procedures? What are the challenges to successfully deploying these environments? What is the future of cyberspace operations training? This tutorial explains the basics of cyber training environments and how to integrate cyber ranges, simulations, and emulations into exercises. It provides a foundation to help organizations define, plan, and execute cyber training events. It identifies best practices of cyberspace training as well as methods of integrating cyber range events into battle staff training exercises. This tutorial will aid anyone involved with designing and executing cyber training events – leaders, planners, cyber warriors, service providers, and general users – who provide or rely on cyberspace capabilities to accomplish their mission.
