Cyberfores SOC Lab — Simulating Real-World Blue Team Operations
The Cyberfores SOC Lab is built using a layered architecture to reflect a real enterprise environment and a simulated company with users, servers, and assets, using as infrastructure layer a NAS-based virtualization platform and segmented networks. Designed to test defensive security controls and practice Blue Team workflows.
A home-built, enterprise-aligned Security Operations Center designed to simulate real-world SOC operations. This lab monitors, detects, analyzes, and responds to cyber threats targeting a simulated business environment, using industry-recognized frameworks and structured SOC workflows rather than standalone tools. I design and validate security monitoring and response controls in a simulated enterprise (Oromil LLC), producing audit-ready evidence, management metrics, and documented outcomes.
Business-Driven Cyber Risk Management & Security Assurance
This environment actively demonstrates the full security monitoring and response lifecycle, including:
• Centralized log collection and correlation
• Network and host-based threat detection
• Alert triage, analysis, and prioritization
• Incident escalation and response workflow
• False-positive identification and tuning
• Threat hunting across network and endpoint data
• Security incident reporting and documentation- Network and host-based threat detection

What I Deliver
This security homelab is intentionally designed around recognized cybersecurity frameworks to reflect how professional SOC teams operate in production environments.
• Risk identification tied to business assets (identity, payments, customer data, uptime)
• Control design aligned to NIST CSF / MITRE ATT&CK / CIS Controls
• Evidence generation (logs, alerts, dashboards, timelines)
• Assurance testing to validate control effectiveness
• Executive metrics (MTTD, alert quality, coverage, trends)
