Create a campaign

A campaign may include multiple simulations. The initial simulation created is referred to as a calibration simulation, which utilizes a scenario selected from the BlackNoise library.

    Choose a scenario from Threat Library > Scenarios. The scenario serves as a template for generating the sequential list of events used in the campaign. Please be aware that the number of events executed in a campaign is determined by the number of Target Systems defined in the campaign perimeter. Each system event will be executed for each Target System.
    Fill in the campaign description details.
    The name and description are filled in with information from the selected scenario but you can change them.
    Add the target type. This data is only used for the generation of graphs and KPIs.
    Select the Attack Vector used to execute the events.
    Define the scope of your campaign. Depending on the scenario selected, you will need to enter the IP addresses targeted by the simulations at network level (e.g. scans) and/or the Target Systems involved by the simulations at OS level.
    Network scope: a list of IPv4 addresses or ranges in CIDR format (e.g. 192.168.1.0/24). Use a space to separate each item.
    System scope: select from your list (Resources > Target systems) or make a new one.
    You need to make sure that the requirements for the Attack Vector to connect to each Target System are met. This means the remote access method (like SSH, WMI, or others based on the Target System's OS) must be enabled, and the flows must be open between the Attack Vector and the Target System (refer to  ⁠⁠FAQ⁠ ).
    Define the execution conditions of the campaign
    Immediate execution or scheduled for a later launch
    Sequence of events: in auto mode the next event runs automatically after the previous one ends (with a defined delay) while in manual mode you have to start each event manually.
