🛡️ Automated Linux security monitoring with ClamAV antivirus, auto-updates, and beautiful status dashboard. Ubuntu & Amazon Linux.

A practical guide and documentation repository covering real-world Linux server management in cloud environments. Includes EC2 setup, SSH security hardening, firewall configuration, and monitoring practices.

AWS cloud monitoring infrastructure using containerized Zabbix (Docker-Compose). Hybrid fleet supervision (Linux/Windows servers) with Zabbix agents. Full setup: VPC, subnets, security groups, EC2 instances. Project Cybersecurity Engineering

The security implementations on your AWS EC2 Linux instance running a Dockerized application. The security measures include the use of Fail2Ban for Nginx and SSH, AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF), ModSecurity with the OWASP Core Rule Set, and CloudWatch for monitoring and logging.

Created a honeypot on Amazon AWS EC2 to simulate a target system and monitor suspicious activity. Configured a Linux instance, connected through SSH, and used the project to explore attacker behavior, intrusion detection, and cloud based security practices.

In this lab, I will build 3 AWS EC2 instances inside a VPC. There will be an Ubuntu machine for security monitoring, a Kali Linux Attacker machine and Windows 10 workstation. I will use Terraform to automate some of the creation.

This project demonstrates the full setup and security hardening process for an Amazon Linux 2023 EC2 instance on AWS. It covers everything from first launch to creating secure admin users, disabling insecure logins, updating, and monitoring a complete checklist for cloud server hygiene!
