Network Security Monitoring Lab
This project demonstrates how to set up a home cybersecurity lab for network monitoring using open-source tools like Wireshark, Snort, and Security Onion. The objective is to simulate real-world network traffic, detect suspicious patterns, and analyze intrusion attempts.
Key components include:
- Virtual Machines running Kali Linux and Ubuntu Server
- Security Onion for SIEM and monitoring
- Custom firewall rules and simulated attack traffic
This lab helps in understanding intrusion detection, log correlation, and incident response fundamentals — skills essential for SOC and cybersecurity analyst roles.
