Educational Experience

 In December  Played I with an awesome lab where we setup a SOC, spun up some VM's, Shutdown EDR on the Victim system and launched an attack through Sliver (C2 Framework) via my attack system on Linux. Then I counteracted with Lima Charlie as a security solution, created several D&R's and then ultimately configured blocks and automated Yara Scanning to return things back to normal. Even got some great information on how to establish a strong baseline for false positives. HOLY SMOKES THIS WAS SO GOOD. I've been getting requests from others requesting more information how they can get in on the action. So here's all the information you need. The ERIC CAPUANO blog course is a MUST. Highly recommended for anybody looking to get hands on with CyberSecurity. https://blog.ecapuano.com/p/so-you-want-to-be-a-soc-analyst-part FINALLY - Some hands on experience that bring the SOC world to life!

  Last month we had the opportunity to get our feet wet using Microsoft Azure - We wanted to learn the insides of Microsoft Sentinel and harness this powerful tool to configure a SIEM. We learned how to view alerts and understand basic analytics.  I highly recommend the free courses provided for Microsoft Associate Learners. Note: Microsoft Entra is now the update title for  Azure Active Directory (Azure AD ).  Stay tuned for more information on how this powerful cloud architecture works  as we'll continue getting hands on with in through February.

  I've been enjoying Neil Anderson's Cisco Packet Tracer labs a bunch. Learning to manually make changes to devices via Cisco IOS has been a fun and challenging experience. Highly recommend his courses! Networking has become second nature to me over the years and will marry together well with my Cybersecurity passion. hashtag # keeplearning Hands on Practice included : Factory Rest Password Recovery IOS System Image Backup and Recovery IOS Image Upgrade Special Thanks for Flackbox! www.Flackbox.com
