Elk Stack project

Microsoft Azure Cloud Security and Virtualization project.Done by configuring and deploying cloud computing service models, cloud networks, firewalls, and virtual machines. The goal of this project was to deploy and configure an ELK Server set to log malicious activity on deployed virtual web servers. Using Technology such as Ansible and Docker to automate the process.

Red vs Blue

Red Vs Blue Project, I played out a scenario playing the role of both Pen Tester and SOC Analyst. As the Pen Tester, I attacked a vulnerable VM within a cloud environment, ultimately gaining root access to the machine. And as the SOC Analyst, I used Kibana to review the logs taken after my engagement. And used the logs analyze and interpret mitigation measures for each exploit that I successfully performed.

Offensive Engagement

Offensive Engagement Group Project, where intelligence on a target server hosting a website was gathered to determine its vulnerabilities. So they can be exploited against the target server and website. To find the flags hidden "flags" within them. Along with creating a technique to maintain access with a backdoor on the server for future access. After ultimately gaining root access. And as a team made recommendations on how to mitigate future similar attacks.
