I'm a Computer Science student (4/8) based in Brazil, building hands-on skills in cybersecurity, SOC operations, and infrastructure monitoring.

My focus is on the defensive side of security — detecting real attacks, analyzing network traffic, and building functional lab environments that mirror production SOC workflows.

• 🎓 B.Sc. Computer Science — currently in 4th semester
• 🛡️ Focus areas: SOC Operations · Threat Detection · Incident Response
• 🔬 Currently building: homelab environments with Wazuh/Elastic Stack, Zeek, Shuffle & Thehive
• 📚 Also studying: Network, Databases, C, Python
• 🌱 Learning on the side: English · Basketball

A hands-on SOC lab built to detect and analyze real security incidents.

This lab simulates a small SOC environment where I monitor, detect, create Rule and investigate security events end-to-end:

Attack scenarios covered (MITRE ATT&CK):

• T1003 — Credential Dumping

This was my most recent project and the one where the concepts really clicked — from agent deployment and log collection to correlating alerts and investigating attacker behavior in a realistic monitored environment.

A functional SOC environment running on a single VM with only 3.2 GB RAM.

Network Sentinel Lab simulates and detects real attack techniques in a controlled environment:

Attack scenarios covered (MITRE ATT&CK):

• T1595 — Active Scanning via Nmap → detected by Zeek conn.log
• T1190 — SQL Injection against vulnerable web app → logged in attacks.log

Tools I work with: Elastic Stack (ELK) · Zeek · Nmap · Hydra · VirtualBox · Filebeat · Kibana
