The cybersecurity testbed is of great importance to cybersecurity practitioners and is a necessary platform for conducting cybersecurity. To better demonstrate the offensive and defensive postures in network security tests, all data in the tests must be quickly collected, standardized, securely stored, and allowed to be quickly retrieved. Based on Elastic Stack products, virtualization technology tools, and commercial link collection systems, this paper designs an efficient data collection method based on the network security test cloud platform to provide data support for real-time situational monitoring by the guide in the test. After testing and verification, the method can achieve efficient collection of host behavior logs, virtual network data, and real network link data within the network security test cloud platform.
