Overview

Master Proxmox. Build realistic, safe cybersecurity labs. Run hands-on pentests, malware analysis, and SOC simulations - all on a single homelab. Proxmox VE for Cybersecurity and Penetration Testing is a practical, project-driven guide that teaches security professionals, students, and hobbyist lab-builders how to design, deploy, and scale professional virtual labs using Proxmox VE. With clear explanations of architecture, networking, storage, hardening, and ethics - plus seven full practical projects (from a minimal cluster to an automated SOC lab) - this book turns theory into repeatable, testable skill. What you'll get: Step-by-step lab projects: deploy a minimal Proxmox cluster, build segmented attack/target/monitoring zones, automate deployments, and simulate red-team/blue-team engagements. Deep technical how-tos: networking (bridges, VLANs, routing), storage (ZFS, LVM-thin, snapshots, backups), templates, and cloning strategies for repeatable testing. Offensive & defensive workflows: safe exploit testing, web app exploitation labs, traffic capture and IDS integration, plus SOC/forensics pipelines. Automation and scaling: use Proxmox API, Ansible/Terraform, cloud-init, and hookscripts to provision reproducible labs and CI/CD-style security training environments. Safety, legal & ethical checklist: lab isolation best practices, rules of engagement, data handling, and cleanup procedures so you test responsibly. Who this book is for Penetration testers and red-teamers building home or corporate cyber ranges SOC analysts and blue teams designing detection/forensics labs IT pros, educators, and students who want hands-on virtualization and security practice Homelab enthusiasts who want enterprise features (clustering, HA, Ceph, ZFS) without guesswork Why readers love it Actionable projects, real-world case studies, and reproducible templates make it easy to move from idea to a working lab - fast and safely. The author focuses on practical decisions (hardware, isolation, backup strategies) that every lab builder needs. Buy this book if you want a single, fully practical reference that teaches Proxmox VE specifically for cybersecurity: build, break, analyze, and repeat - with confidence.
