What you'll do
As part of the defense in depth model it is vitally important to keep tabs on the events occurring on individual devices/systems.
- In this lab, students will use nmap to conduct a manual service scan to discover any networked devices as well as the services those devices are running
- They will log into a Windows workstation to set up auditing for system services, and then enable the auditing of attempts (successes/failures) to use a specific program (Splunk)
- The students will validate that the new audit objects are successfully working by reviewing the Event Log for the Windows workstation host
- ⏱ About 60 minutes
- Counts towards: Certified Ethical Hacker (exam CEH) · CompTIA PenTest+ (exam PT0-003) · CompTIA CySA+ (exam CS0-004)
Scored lab. A scored lab checks your work and records a score you can see on the lab page.
