Range
Quality assurance for probes and security tests
Range is a multi-segment testing environment to validate probes and security tests.
Range is the only server-based aspect of the Prelude tech stack, however it is managed through a Serverless Application Model (SAM) application to retain the ephemeral properties of spinning up/down on demand.
Each machine in the range runs a probe and is hooked up to a Prelude account managed by the security team, for validating new tests. The range rebuilds itself weekly, to re-test the probe installers from scratch.
Range is broken into the following segments:
- Base: one of every supported operating system (major/minor versions) with default configurations and defenses
- Crowdstrike: one of every supported operating system, running middle-of-the-line prevention policies
- Windows: an Active Directory environment running enterprise Defender
Each machine in the range includes a chaos monkey installation which constantly - and randomly - updates system configurations. This process is intended to construct dynamic environments that are difficult to predict in a deliberate manner.
