SOC Monitoring & Incident Response Lab

Personal Project
Designed and deployed a full virtual SOC environment using VirtualBox (Ubuntu 22.04, Windows 10, Kali Linux) to simulate enterprise threat detection and incident response workflows. Installed and configured Wazuh SIEM, integrated IRIS Incident Response Platform via REST API, and executed attack simulations with Kali Linux tools including Nmap, Hydra, and Metasploit. Technologies: VirtualBox, Wazuh SIEM, IRIS IR Platform, Windows 10, Kali Linux, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

Automated Threat Response System (SOAR Pipeline)

Personal Project
Engineered a SOAR automation pipeline integrating Wazuh with n8n for real-time ingestion and processing of security alerts via webhook. Configured Wazuh to forward alerts via custom ossec.conf integration, built n8n workflow to extract alert metadata and query VirusTotal API for IP reputation analysis. Implemented automated conditional response with Slack and email notifications. Technologies: n8n, Wazuh, VirusTotal API, Slack, Email.
