A structured portfolio of hands-on cybersecurity labs and technical simulations, focusing on Linux, networking, log analysis, and security operations, showcasing practical skills for entry-level security engineering and SOC roles.
This repository documents my self-driven cybersecurity journey through hands-on labs, simulations, and practical exercises. All content is created to build real skills in system administration, network analysis, log investigation, and SOC operations.
- Linux fundamentals and file system management
- Network fundamentals and traffic analysis
- Log analysis and incident investigation
- Security operations (SOC) workflows
- Basic scripting for security tasks
- Risk awareness and compliance concepts
Each folder contains detailed write-ups of my work in that area.
Examples:
- File permissions and user management
- Privilege escalation exercises
- Process monitoring and analysis
- TCP/IP fundamentals
- Nmap scanning and port analysis
- Network traffic investigations
- Access log analysis
- SQL injection basics
- Vulnerability scanning
- Incident response simulations
- Log aggregation and analysis
- Threat detection exercises
The goal of this repository is to demonstrate practical, hands-on cybersecurity skills to future employers. All labs are documented in a professional format showing methodology, commands used, and lessons learned.
This repository is for reference and learning. All labs are documented in Markdown for clarity and reproducibility. Feel free to explore examples, replicate exercises in safe environments, and understand the practical application of cybersecurity concepts.
