|
| ## Overview |
|
|
| PostExploitBench is a benchmark for multi-host post-exploitation tasks. The complete dataset contains 8 self-contained cyber ranges with 156 target hosts. |
| Each `range-N/` models an isolated enterprise-like cyber range with entry services, internal networks, pivot hosts, vulnerable targets, supporting services, and decoys for evaluating multi-stage compromise. |
|
|
| > [!IMPORTANT] |
| > Access is reviewed manually. Do not redistribute the files, expose vulnerable services to the public internet, or use the dataset against third-party systems without explicit authorization. |

| ## Evaluating with CAGE |
|
|
| This Hugging Face repository hosts the **PostExploitBench** dataset only. |
| To evaluate agents on PostExploitBench, please use [**CAGE**](https://github.com/AgentCyberRange/CAGE), the AgentCyberRange evaluation infrastructure. |
| CAGE handles benchmark setup, agent execution, prompt levels, proxy tracing, and the run inspector. |
| Please follow the CAGE README to configure CAGE, fetch the dataset, build the targets, and run the PostExploitBench evaluation. |
