Challenge
Getting Started in the Lab Environment
● Here are the initial instructions and explanation of the lab environment. Read this while your environment is busy creating itself from nothing. Yes, this violates physics; we know. How fun!
-
Challenge
Uncovering Network Reconnaissance
Analyze provided NetFlow data and Suricata alerts to identify signs of network reconnaissance, such as port scanning or OS fingerprinting. The objective is to use the pre-converted NetFlow data and pre-generated Suricata alerts to pinpoint the source and method of the reconnaissance activity.
-
Challenge
Detecting and Analyzing a DDoS Attack
Using pre-converted NetFlow data and pre-generated Suricata alerts, identify and analyze a simulated Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. Determine the characteristics of the attack, including its source, target, and impact on the network.
-
Challenge
Investigating a Malware Infection Scenario
Analyze pre-processed NetFlow data and Suricata alerts to trace a malware infection within the network. Identify the infection vector, command-and-control (C2) communications, and any lateral movement or data exfiltration attempts.
