Build a Home SOC Lab for CySA+ - CySA+ CS0-003

Build a home SOC lab for CySA+ without wasting time on fantasy architecture. This video shows how to create a practical analyst lab with a Windows endpoint, a Linux system, rich host telemetry from Sysmon, network visibility from Zeek, central monitoring options like Wazuh, and the right expectations before attempting a heavier Security Onion deployment. We also cover safe practice targets such as OWASP Juice Shop and DVWA, why intentionally vulnerable apps must stay isolated from internet-facing systems, and how to use controlled adversary emulation ideas so your lab produces useful evidence instead of random chaos. Watch the full playlist for complete CySA+ CS0-003 coverage. Watch the next video: security operations architecture for analysts, including logging, hardening, and where telemetry lives.
