HackX Simulator

HackX Simulator HackX Simulator is a cybersecurity training and testing environment that lets users explore simulated security tools in a safe, sandboxed way. Instead of executing real exploits, HackX provides mocked, educational simulations of popular tools such as Nmap, Wireshark, and Metasploit. Select a tool from the left (UI) to begin exploring! 🚀 Features 🛡 Safe Cybersecurity Training – no live exploits, all outputs simulated. 🔧 Multiple Tools – Simulated versions of common tools: Nmap → port scanning simulation Metasploit → exploit workflow simulation Wireshark → traffic capture/analysis simulation 🌐 Configurable Environments – Load sample network topologies & traffic logs. 🧩 Extensible – Add new simulated tools by dropping them in /src/tools/. 🖥 UI Options – Command-line interface or extendable web interface. 🗂 Repository Overview src/simulator.py → Core simulation engine src/tool_loader.py → Loads and runs selected tools src/tools/ → Collection of simulated cybersecurity tools demo_data/ → Sample datasets for simulation tests/ → Unit tests 🛠 Installation git clone https://github.com//hackx-simulator cd hackx-simulator pip install -r requirements.txt ▶️ Usage CLI Mode python src/ui.py Select a tool from the menu (e.g., Nmap, Wireshark) to run a simulated session. Example – Nmap Simulation

Select tool: Nmap Simulated Nmap Scan Results: Host: 192.168.0.12

• Port 22: Open (SSH)

• Port 80: Open (HTTP)

• Port 443: Closed 🧪 Adding a New Tool Create a new file in /src/tools/ (e.g., toolname_sim.py). Implement a run_simulation() method that returns mock output. Register your tool in tool_loader.py.
