Cyber Range Exercises in Ukraine
Duration
October 2024 - May 2025
Cyber range exercises are an excellent and practical way to develop the cyber defence skills of cyber experts in Ukraine. As a country with a high degree of digitalisation and a history of cyberattacks targeting its government, businesses, and critical infrastructure, Ukraine requires skilled cyber experts to ensure continuity in vital services, counter malicious actors, and foster a secure and trusted digital environment.
With the ESTDEV-supported project, Estonia supported the public sector in Ukraine in developing cyber defence skills to help bolster Ukraine’s ability to protect its cyberspace. This collaboration strengthened Ukraine’s national security and contributed to the global fight against cyber warfare.
Within the project, two editions of cyber exercises titled “UA-EE Cyber Shield via Tallinn Mechanism” involved a total of 387 cyber experts from Ukraine’s state authorities and academia. The first exercise iteration took place in December 2024 and the second in April 2025 in Kyiv.
The 3-day dynamic and immersive cybersecurity exercises were designed to equip participants with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate today’s complex threat landscape. By combining threat hunting, live-fire exercises, and a culminating hack-back scenario, this exercise provided participants with a realistic and challenging environment to hone their defensive and offensive capabilities.
The exercises were conducted under the leadership of e-Governance Academy in a simulation environment provided by CybExer, a NATO-awarded Estonian cybersecurity company.
In addition, the eGA team, in collaboration with Cybexer, helped strengthen the cyber defence capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces by conducting a threat-hunting exercise and delivering a dedicated platform. This support was provided within the EU’s support to Ukraine through the European Peace Facility defence component from March 2022 to April 2024.
