Securely operating a network requires tools to monitor, detect, and prevent breaches. Knowing what goes on and how to stop malicious traffic involves the use of Network Security Monitoring (NSM), security information and event management (SIEM), and intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS). In this course, you'll explore these tools and implement Suricata and Kibana as NSM, IDS, IPS, and SIEM solutions. Furthermore, you'll compare and contrast network defense tools. You'll examine NSM and SIEM's purpose and characteristics and outline how to implement and benefit from these techniques. Next, you'll install Suricata and Kibana, and use their features for rule creation, alerts, logging, scripting, and integration. Finally, you'll integrate Suricata and Wireshark to leverage both tools' capabilities so that you can operate your network securely.
