- Week 4: Real-World Attack Simulations & Capstone Project
Hands-On Tools and Platforms
SIEM (Security Information and Event Management)
SIEM platforms collect and analyze log data from various sources (endpoints, servers, network devices, applications). They provide real-time visibility into security incidents.
Examples:
- Splunk,
- Wazuh,
- IBM QRadar,
- LogRhythm,
- Elastic SIEM
Key Capabilities:
- Log aggregation and correlation
- Alerting on anomalies or rule matches
- Threat hunting with custom queries
- Dashboarding and reporting
1.EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response)
EDR tools monitor endpoint activities to detect and respond to cyber threats.
Examples: CrowdStrike Falcon, SentinelOne, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Sophos
Intercept X
Key Capabilities:
- Real-time monitoring of processes and file changes
- Detection of malware, exploits, and ransomware
- Isolation and remediation of infected endpoints
- Threat intelligence integration
2.Network Analyzer Tools
These tools help inspect network traffic to detect anomalies, troubleshoot issues, and uncover potential intrusions.
Examples: Wireshark, Zeek (formerly Bro), tcpdump, SolarWinds NetFlow Analyzer
Key Capabilities:
- Deep packet inspection
- Protocol analysis
- Bandwidth usage monitoring
- Detection of suspicious or unauthorized network behavior
3.Sysinternals Suite
A set of advanced utilities by Microsoft for Windows system diagnostics, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
Examples:
- Process Explorer – Shows detailed info about running processes
- Autoruns – Lists all programs that start with Windows
- Procmon (Process Monitor) – Captures real-time file system, registry, and process/thread activity
- PsExec – Execute processes remotely
Use Cases:
