"Investigate unapproved SCADA architecture changes, enforce Purdue model segmentation, and harden PLCs at a regional water treatment facility."
As a tactical range on the SecNav Platform, Operation OT Architecture Review: Operation GHOST-WAVE is a high-fidelity cyber simulation designed to verify critical combat competencies. Deploying into this live range audits an operator's technical capabilities in ICS/SCADA Architecture Review, OT Network Segmentation, PLC & HMI Hardening under real-world threat conditions.
Tactical Objectives
Perform initial threat surface triage on compromised hosts.
Collect and correlate indicators of lateral network movement.
Conduct structured security reviews with potential insiders.
Formulate a comprehensive target profiling report.

ENTRY LEVEL TRAFFIC BOOST: START SKILL DNA VERIFICATION
Are you ready to test your security credentials? Deploy the Entry Level Tier of this operation for only 5 CR! Get fully hands-on, test your baseline operational performance with a lenient 15-turn budget, and earn a cryptographically signed digital credentials report upon verification. No credit card required.
This mission requires active Tactical Probe monitoring. Zero-AI interference policy is enforced. All telemetry will be cryptographically signed in the final DAR.
[04] Career Pathway Mapping (Target Job Roles)
Completing this simulation serves as hands-on proof of skill for high-demand security roles. Below are the professional profiles that heavily prioritize these operational competencies:
Q1:Which job roles directly benefit from completing Operation OT Architecture Review: Operation GHOST-WAVE?
Completing this simulation directly prepares operators for elite roles like ICS/SCADA Security Engineer, OT Security Technician, Critical Infrastructure Protection Spec, Physical-IT Systems Integrator by auditing active-threat capabilities under fire.
Q2:Which professional certifications cover the competency validated in this range?
The technical skills validated in this scenario align with major professional credentials, specifically ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Fundamentals Specialist (ISA), ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Design Specialist (ISA), GIAC Global Industrial Cyber Security Professional (GICSP) (SANS/GIAC), GIAC Response and Industrial Defense (GRID) (SANS/GIAC), ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Risk Assessment Specialist (ISA), GIAC Critical Infrastructure Protection (GCIP) (SANS/GIAC), PECB Certified Lead SCADA Security Manager (PECB).
Q3:What is the Decision Action Report (DAR) and how is it used?
The Decision Action Report (DAR) is a cryptographically signed, zero-AI-tempered assessment document that registers your actual telemetry, turn efficiency, and incident containment signatures. It acts as verifiable, institutional proof of capability for recruiting officers.
Q4:How does the entry-level credits cost system work?
SecNav operates a flexible tactical credit allocation model. The Entry Level tier allows operators to obtain baseline range familiarity at minimal credit overhead (5 CR) before scaling up to full Hardcore tier active threat deployments.
