Join us for a member only cyber range team exercise

Welcome to Nebula Bank, a digital bank that's deployed a range of generative AI technology into its customer-facing portal. It's looking to ensure that the GenAI doesn't contain anything that could compromise customer security or the business overall. Nebula Bank hopes you won't be able to access its network using anything you can learn from AI!
In this range, access the GenAI support assistant via Nebula's banking portal. Interact with the AI to see what can you learn from it and how far can you push the limits of security.
