hen the nation’s ports come under cyber siege, every second counts. Attack the Harbor is a fully immersive, live‑fire cyber defense exercise where Blue Teams battle a realistic dual‑track APT campaign modeled on Volt Typhoon and APT34 tradecraft. Each Blue Team—composed of 3–5 operators—must defend a shared military‑civilian port network as points degrade over time and delayed responses carry steep penalties. The only path to victory is speed, teamwork, and flawless situational awareness. Led by: Anthony Perkins, Col. USAF (Ret.), Exercise Director and Host Attack the Harbor is more than a simulation—it’s an operational proving ground designed to sharpen real‑world cyber defense readiness against the most advanced adversaries in the world. |
