MARTINEZ-GARCIA, Holzen Atocha; CAMACHO-PEREZ, Enrique y CHUC-US, Ligia Beatriz. EthkLab: Low-cost laboratory for hands-on learning in cybersecurity issues. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2024, vol.15, n.29, e712. Epub 08-Nov-2024. ISSN 2007-7467. https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v15i29.2052.
EthkLab, a low-cost portable laboratory for learning cybersecurity and ethical hacking, is presented. The objective was to develop a learning environment for students at the Tecnológico Nacional de México campus Progreso, who lack a specialized laboratory about cybersecurity. First, it is defined whether it is possible and feasible to build such a laboratory. Then the specific hardware architecture is designed and the prototype is developed. Various tests are applied to volunteer students for validation of the lab, revealing satisfactory results that support the hypothesis that it can be used to benefit students and improve their skills with realistic hands-on testing.
As in any preliminary development, areas of opportunity were found to be evaluated and corrected in future work on this proposed architecture, which is vertically and horizontally scalable due to the nature of its design.
