This page answers frequently asked questions about the InfoRange® training platform, the simulation of the information environment, and its use in training and exercises by armed forces, government agencies, and security organizations.
General Questions about InfoRange
InfoRange® is a training platform for simulating the digital information environment. The software enables the realistic simulation of social media, news platforms, and other digital channels, integrating them into training and exercises.
InfoRange® is designed for armed forces, government agencies, and security organizations. The platform is primarily used for training and exercises in the information environment.
InfoRange® is used to realistically simulate digital information environments in exercises. Organizations can use it to simulate information dynamics and train capabilities to create effects in the information environment.
Yes. InfoRange® can be used both as a standalone training platform and integrated into existing exercises. This allows the information environment to be simulated alongside other exercise components.
Simulation of the Information Environment
A simulation of the information environment recreates digital communication spaces such as social media, news platforms, or online discourse in a realistic way. With InfoRange®, such information dynamics can be integrated into training and exercises.
InfoRange® enables the simulation of various digital communication spaces, including social media, news platforms, blogs, websites, and other online information channels.
InfoRange® simulates digital communication spaces such as social media, news platforms, and online discourse. This creates immersive information environments that provide realistic training conditions.
InfoRange® can be used to simulate a wide range of scenarios in the information environment, such as media crisis situations, disinformation campaigns, or dynamic information environments during exercises.
InfoRange® is a software solution for simulating the information environment. It enables the realistic simulation of digital communication spaces and their integration into exercises.
Use in Training and Exercises
Digital information environments increasingly influence decision-making, public perception, and operational processes. InfoRange® enables organizations to realistically train these dynamics.
InfoRange® can be used alongside large-scale exercises to realistically simulate the information environment and represent information dynamics as part of complex exercise scenarios.
InfoRange® is particularly suited for Strategic Communications training, as narratives, media reactions, and information dynamics can be realistically simulated.
Yes. InfoRange® can simulate realistic media scenarios and is therefore also suitable for Public Affairs and crisis communication training.
Effects in the information environment can be trained by realistically simulating information environments. InfoRange® enables the representation of narratives, media reactions, and digital discourse in exercises.
Social media can be simulated in exercises by recreating digital platforms and communication spaces. InfoRange® enables the realistic simulation of such discourse.
Training in the information environment refers to exercises in which digital information spaces are realistically simulated and operational actions within them are practiced. InfoRange® enables organizations to conduct such training.
With InfoRange®, you can specifically train how to handle disinformation. The software simulates narratives, media reporting, and digital discourse, realistically representing the spread of disinformation. Participants can respond directly within the simulation and test strategies and countermeasures.
Technology and Infrastructure
InfoRange® is developed in Germany and operated within the European Union. The platform meets high standards for data protection, security, and digital sovereignty.
No. InfoRange® is a cloud-based platform and can be used via a web browser without local installation.
InfoRange® is scalable and can be used by multiple participants simultaneously, for example in large-scale exercises or training scenarios with multiple teams.
