While Hollywood has fake cities for filming movies, the FBI apparently has one for getting hacked. The agency has pulled back the curtain on its Kinetic Cyber Range, a 22,000-square-foot replica small town hidden inside its Huntsville, Alabama campus. But instead of training officers for shootouts or hostage rescues, the facility is designed to simulate realistic cyberattacks on homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure so investigators can practice responding to them in a controlled environment.
The indoor complex includes buildings such as homes, a hotel, a gas station, a courthouse, and even a fully functional data center packed with around 200 servers. Each location is wired with operating systems, connected devices, and live networks to mirror the kinds of digital environments agents encounter during real investigations.
