Network Analysis with Maltrail
Your task is to bring the Maltrail sensor up on the local interface, allow the captured traffic to flow through it so that it flags traffic matching known-bad signatures, then triage the reported detections to identify the implicated internal host, determine what it contacted, assess the severity of the activity, and document your findings for incident response.

Challenge
Initializing the local Maltrail environment & processing packet captures
Initialize the Maltrail sensor and observe detections. You will learn about the Maltrail sensor, server, and client architecture, and bring the sensor up on a local interface so that it can inspect traffic and produce detections.
-
Challenge
Dashboard navigation & threat Analysis
Analyze traffic for known-bad indicators. You will read the dashboard, distinguish key indicator types (IP, DNS, URL, and user agent), and isolate genuine threats from background noise.
-
Challenge
Consolidating findings & incident reporting for SOC escalation
Document anomalies using the reporting interface. You will interpret a detection's key fields and record a finding according to the Globomantics incident detection and management standards.
