  ABSTRACT: Cybersecurity is increasing its significance in recent years due to the overwhelming use of devices which require the use of internet. This raises the importance of having cybersecurity training for the upcoming generations as hackers continue to upgrade their methodologies and techniques to obtain important information such as personal identification, credit card numbers etcetera. This paper describes the development of a platform for students to learn how to setup and use a Network Intrusion Detection System in a virtual environment. In this environment, the administrator of a specific system can monitor and detect their network for any malicious activity. We will discuss in this paper the network configuration setup via virtualization technology followed by having a Network Intrusion Detection System installed in one of the virtual machines port mirrored to monitor the whole network. In the virtual network, a virtual machine will be assigned as an attacker to simulate cyber-attacks allowing the Network Intrusion Detection System to detect the Internet Protocol (IP) address from the source of malicious activity provider. In addition, students will have the opportunity to learn how to write basic rules for the Network Intrusion Detection System which are algorithms used to detect cyber malicious movements.
