THE OPERATION

Every decision moves the story.

0 / 3 required missions passed

The patch is green. The peer is ready. The incident is not over. Earn every step back to service.

What you’ll practise and what’s included

Three substantial edge-incident missions across three progressive levels, approximately 72 minutes in total. Join fictional Bracken Field Services as an unapproved management route challenges a green patch dashboard. Reconcile clocks and independent evidence, contain without trusting a replicated peer, choose a verified rebuild or replacement, retire shared authority and defend a restricted return or an owned hold. A canary variant changes whether the network gate is satisfied; a safe pilot can still end in a necessary rollback. Each mission has a distinct badge, animated briefing, meaningful investigative or operational branches, evidence receipts and a saved decision debrief. The final dossier includes a reusable edge-incident worksheet. Level 2 requires Level 1; Level 3 requires Level 2. Basic network and incident-response familiarity helps; the required topology, policy and fictional platform behaviour are supplied. Everything runs in the HTML5 player: no terminal, live appliance, exploit, malware or external account required. Included in the existing €20/month Solo Missions subscription and eligible Teams membership; no separate campaign fee. This is guided decision practice, not a live appliance lab or certification. Chapters supply fixed checkpoints rather than importing earlier branch outcomes. Durations are estimates, not countdowns.

LEVEL 1

Establish the boundary

The Green Dashboard insignia
NG-0122 MIN

The Green Dashboard

07:58 UTC. The patch dashboard is green, but Bracken Field Services has an unapproved management route. You are Leena’s incident analyst. Reconcile the clocks, choose an independent evidence source and request a scoped hold while crew dispatch continues. Infrastructure owners execute approved changes; scanning, replay and contacting suspicious destinations are outside your authority. This fictional chapter supplies its own checkpoint. All evidence is synthetic; no countdown is enforced.

LEVEL 2

Rebuild the trust

The Twin You Didn’t Clear insignia
NG-02LOCKED

The Twin You Didn’t Clear

08:30 UTC. An unauthorised startup entry is confirmed on the held appliance; its standby received the same configuration. You advise Leena on recovery. Compare backups and shared authority, choose an approved offline rebuild or replacement and verify the resulting policy and denials. Owners execute changes; production reconnect is not authorised here. This fictional chapter supplies its checkpoint independently of earlier branch choices. All evidence is synthetic; no countdown is enforced.

Earn the return

The Narrow Return insignia
NG-03LOCKED

The Narrow Return

09:35 UTC. A recovered pair is waiting behind the release gate. You advise Sal and Leena: inspect the independent canary receipts, recommend a restricted pilot or an owned hold and respond when conditions change. Evidence varies between attempts. You may recommend only the supplied approvals and scope, never unrestricted release. This fictional chapter supplies its own checkpoint; earlier branch outcomes are not imported. All evidence is synthetic; no countdown is enforced.
