Why the FBI Built a Fake Town to Train for Cyberattacks

from The Big Tech Podcast with Fexingo: Apple, Google, Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon News · host Fexingo

This episode of The Big Tech Podcast digs into a fascinating piece of cybersecurity infrastructure: the FBI's replica small town, built to simulate real-world cyberattacks. Lucas explains how this 'cyber range' works, why it's a breakthrough for training, and what it reveals about the escalation of threats against critical infrastructure. Luna asks whether it could be used to test offensive tools, and they discuss the privacy and oversight questions the project raises. Tied to today's headlines, they also touch on the KPMG AI hallucination debacle and the broader trust crisis in AI. A fresh lens on how law enforcement is adapting to the digital battlefield. #FBI #CyberSecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #CyberRange #Training #LawEnforcement #AI #KPMG #Hallucination #Privacy #Oversight #Technology #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #BigTechPodcast #Fexingo #Tech Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
