Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE) Cyber Range Development Software Application Project (Simulated Internet for Cyber Range Training Events)
The Army Contracting Command Orlando is seeking information on a simulated internet capability (Grey Space Network) for the Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE) to support realistic, scalable, and isolated cybersecurity training. The solution must integrate with PCTE’s existing architecture, including VMware Cloud Foundation and NSX-T, and support on-premises, cloud, or hybrid deployment. Key requirements include generating realistic background traffic, supporting advanced protocols like DNSSEC and BGP hijacking, and maintaining strict isolation between management and training networks. Responses are due by 4 pm ET on 21 July 2026, with no budget specified. The location for performance is not explicitly stated, but the system supports military and allied users.
