Not even close!

Well, it has been another week more or less and I am taking baby steps to getting my stuff together.  I have spun up a couple more services and watched a lot of YouTube videos/zoom meetings on cybertech.  Today's zoom meeting had my head spinning at the end of it due to the technical nature of the subject.  I have got some stuff done as far as the homelab.  Upgraded the r620 to 96 gigs of ram and now need to see how to best over provision it with LXC's and VM's.  I am being told not to use LXC's if I don't have to but you get so much bang for your buck using them not sure how I am going to back off on them, we will see.....

Now to get security onion setup as well as blackubuntu.  May also work on Splunk and bloodhound but I need to focus on getting Wazuh learned well.  It is hard but I guess if it was easy anyone could do it. 😁

Happy Wednesday 😀

Almost there

I have been working on a lot in the last several days.  Also watching a lot of tech videos.  I mean a lot of videos, lol!  Learning a lot but not quite there yet.  I have been all over the place with what I am working on which will have to stop here soon.  I have been doing a lot on the Proxmox server but need to update the ram in it to go further.  Mini server I have been doing a lot on with Portainer and the containers I have running on it.  I almost got VM's working on it but not yet on the mini server.  I need to circle back to Wazuh and all that it entails (powershell, sysmon, virustotal and a touch of wireshark).  I have also been working with runZero which is an interesting product, I guess!  
I have been thinking about installing security onion and greylog on Proxmox to kick the tires on them.  Maybe if I get adventurous this week, lol!  So much to learn and so little time!

Happy Wednesday 😀
