Abstract: The present invention discloses a cybersecurity evaluation system and method for assessing offensive and defensive cybersecurity capabilities within isolated execution environments. The system comprises a participant terminal, an authentication interface associated with an authentication database, a challenge database storing vulnerability scenarios, deployment parameters, and exploit attempts, a virtualization controller coupled with a virtualization infrastructure comprising nodes, a terminal communication interface, an interaction log repository, a patch validation environment, a validation server, an evaluation controller, and an assessment database. Upon authentication, the virtualization controller deploys an isolated target environment corresponding to a vulnerability scenario. Command-line inputs and execution responses generated during participant interaction are maintained within the interaction log repository. Following corrective modifications to the vulnerable configuration, exploit attempts retrieved from the challenge database are replayed within the patch validation environment. The evaluation controller generates an assessment outcome using responses and comparison of interaction records stored in the assessment database therein.
