This will build a range automatically in Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04 and 22.04. You will need also to sign up for an AWS account here as a prerequisite.

  1. Install all the project dependencies with this 1 liner: source <(curl -s 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/splunk/attack_range/develop/scripts/ubuntu_deploy.sh')

  2. Run aws configure to configure your AWS credentials on the local machine. If you are not sure how to create AWS credentials for the attack_range follow these instructions.

  3. Finally configure your attack_range by running python attack_range.py configure

You can now build your first range using:

python attack_range.py build

p.s. make sure you destroy your range once you are done with it to not incur further costs. run: python attack_range.py destroy.

Also if you get an error regarding Ubuntu AMI subscription navigate to https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp?sku=3iplms73etrdhxdepv72l6ywj and press "Continue to Subscribe" then "Accept Terms". This will allow official Ubuntu images to be used by your AWS account.
