It's great to see someone creating content for people to learn and gain skills rather than being a content creator who only focuses on videos that rank high on the search engine. Many aspiring cybersecurity analysts do not know what they don't know that's why they mostly search for trendy topics they see from KZbin creators with millions of subscribers teaching nothing in a structured format.

[@MyDFIR]

Thank you for watching ❤️ I love the technical aspect and am fully aware it’s not going to rank as high as other topics but as long as one person learns from my content, I am grateful.

[@TheKingofparis148]

Found your channel last night learned more in two days than I have in the past year

[@MyDFIR]

Welcome! That is incredible to hear ❤️

[@Cyber.Panda.]

[@yarieltarano280]

[@MyDFIR]

You are so welcome! Thanks for participating ❤️

[@bradrickrobinson7452]

Thanks for sharing and applying the much needed motivation to give someone a fighting chance into the IT Field. I've come to the conclusion that no matter what line of IT work you are planning to get into, it's best that you have some sort of knowledge about Active Directory and I'm so glad you've built this project around it. Thanks again and keep up the great work!!!

[@MyDFIR]

100% agree! Thanks for watching and I hope you have fun with this project ❤️

[@oldspice105]

Looking forward to this! I've currently doing a Cyber Security Degree with the Open University along side working in the 1st line time for a fairly big company. hoping to break into cyber security soon! Loving this content!

Thanks for this! You have no idea how on time this is! I just got my network+ and security+ but I still have trouble landing an interview due to no tech experience. Hopefully with a few projects like these and adding them on my resume I can get in the door. (Aiming for Sys admin)

You're welcome! If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

[@iXecurity]

Great work ❤❤❤❤

Thank you ❤️

[@chootybeeks1088]

I just finished the automation project, so I still have my Digital Ocean free trial. I'll have to use that for the lab since my laptop does not have a lot of free space.

[@MyDFIR]

Nice! Congratulations 🎉

[@k_usuan]

Too bad I’m using M2 . Anyways this is a brilliant content and great I just learnt a how to design a network diagram. Bravo

[@MyDFIR]

You can always use the cloud with free credits if you are comfortable! Doing it this way, you wouldn't have to spend a dime 👍

[@k_usuan]

Thank you so much and well appreciated! I will give it a try and if you don’t mind me asking I hope the Vultr is easy to set up?

[@MyDFIR]

Yup! Vultr is easy to setup. If you have any questions, let me know!

[@eniggma9353]

You mind providing info on mimimum requirements that such project would need from a hardware standpoint. Minimum ram, processor ect to successfully pull this off. (?)

[@MyDFIR]

Yeah, minimum would be 16GB RAM. You could probably pull it off with 8GB but with 4 VMs you are bound to run into some technical issues. As for disk space, 150-GB 200 should suffice. CPU -64bit architecture

[@user-ui6mj6bg7b]

Thanks. Have you a academy for SOC Analyst where learn this theory? Thank's

[@MyDFIR]

I do not have an academy yet. But will have one in the future 👍

[@dericklouw4309]

Is this course really free ?

[@MyDFIR]

When you mention this course, I am assuming my SOC course and if so, that is not free. But if you are referring to this project, this project is free.
