Platform
A cyber range you learn on, not about.
Arena puts a live machine in front of you for every lesson. You spawn it, you break it, you prove it with a flag and a writeup. Nobody else is on your instance, and nothing is a screenshot.
Anatomy of a challenge
Four parts, every time.
The same shape runs through the whole catalogue, from a first HTTP request to a full range compromise.
A container you spawn
A live target
A flag you earn
A writeup you file
Ways to play
Solo, on a range, or head to head.
Start on single challenges, move to multi-host ranges, then test it against another operator.
Jeopardy challenges
Network ranges
Showdown
Isolation
Yours alone, unless you ask for company.
How Arena keeps one operator’s lab away from another’s.
- Shared labs
- Shared Network Labs you join in seconds, with every network range on a shared instance. Other operators are on it by design. Included from Pro.
- Isolated labs
- A private instance nobody else is on, and network ranges on your own private topology. Included from Advanced.
- Network segments
- Each network in a range is its own SDN segment with static addressing, so two teams can run the same lab without ever seeing each other.
- Access
- Labs are reached from the browser or over a VPN profile Arena issues you. Outpost, the in-browser Kali desktop (five hours a day on Pro, unlimited on Advanced), is already wired in.
- Deployment
- Hosted by AirOverflow, or self-hosted and air-gapped on Enterprise.
For teams

Questions
Asked before you are.
Do I need to install anything to use Arena?
No. Labs and challenges run on Arena's infrastructure and are reached from the browser or over a VPN profile Arena issues you, so nothing has to be installed or configured on your own machine.
Is there a free tier?
Yes. Arena has a free tier with access to a set of challenges and labs, and paid tiers that raise the limits and unlock the full course catalogue.
Can anyone else reach my instance?
Not on an isolated lab: that instance is yours alone. Shared labs are joined by other operators by design, and every range network is its own isolated segment.
Can we run Arena on our own infrastructure?
Yes. Enterprise includes self-hosted or air-gapped deployment, along with your own tenant and single sign-on.
