Suricata---Wazuh-lab - defensive security lab designed to detect real‑tim

项目说明

Detection Lab with Suricata, Wazuh, DVWA and Kali Linux

This project demonstrates a defensi en designed to detect real‑time network and web attacks.
The lab is composed of three machines, each with a specific role in the detection pipeline.
The project is currently under de, with Phase 3 focusing on integrating Suricata alerts into Wazuh for centralized analysis and correlation.

Lab Architecture

The following diagram illustrates the network layout used in this project:

Component Roles

192.168.15.137 — DVWA (Damn Web Application)

This machine acts as the intentionally target.
It is used to simulate common web attacks such as SQL Injection, XSS, LFI, brute‑force authentication attempts, and other insecure web behaviors.

192.168.15.140 — Wazuh + Suricata Server

This system functions as the monitoring and detection hub of the lab:

Suricata inspects network traffic and generates alerts based on ET Open rules and custom rules.

Wazuh collects, processes, and Suricata alerts.

Together, they simulate a lightweight SOC en.

192.168.15.141 — Kali Linux (Attacker)

This machine is used to generate controlled malicious traffic, including:

Web exploitation attempts

Brute‑force authentication

Reconnaissance and scanning

Payload testing

HTTP manipulation

---

Project Purpose

The main goal of this project is to demonstrate how:

Suricata detects malicious activity in real time

Custom rules enhance and detection accuracy

Wazuh centralizes and correlates alerts

A SOC‑style workflow can be simulated in a small lab
