In this project, broken up into multiple modules, you will build a comprehensive cybersecurity home lab using VMware Workstation Pro. Upon completion, you will have an environment where you can safely practice penetration testing against a wide variety of targets, as well as detection in your SIEM.

In this module, we will look at setting up a pfSense firewall VM in VMware Workstation to segment our home lab network

In this module, we will log into the pfSense web portal and configure firewall rules for our VMware Workstation lab using our Kali VM.

In this module of the VMware Workstation cybersecurity home lab project, we are going to look at the process of setting up a dual-homed target to serve as a pivot point into an Active Directory network.

In this module, we will look at the process of adding an additional interface to the pfSense VM when the VMware Workstation GUI only shows four available interfaces.

In this module, we will cover the steps to set up a small Active Directory forest in VMware, including a domain controller and two client computers

In this post, I provide a detailed diagram and technical analysis on how name-based virtual hosting works by serving multiple websites from a single IP address.
