Security monitoring and threat detection platform running in my self-hosted home lab. Built to gain hands-on experience with SIEM operations, log analysis, and the security monitoring workflows used by SOC analysts.
This project demonstrates a self-hosted Wazuh security monitoring lab running in my home network. The goal was to gain hands-on experience with log collection, endpoint monitoring, alert analysis, and SOC-style security operations. Wazuh runs inside Docker on my Raspberry Pi, with agents deployed on monitored systems feeding real-time events into the central manager.
Building this Wazuh lab gave me hands-on experience with security monitoring, log analysis, SIEM operations, Docker deployment, and Linux administration. The project helped me understand how SOC analysts investigate alerts and monitor systems for suspicious activity — skills that directly apply to real-world security operations roles.
