Wazuh - Path Traversal Analysis

VIP4 Points

Overview

Wazuh - Path Traversal Analysis is a SOC lab focused on detecting suspicious file path access attempts in web traffic.

The analyst reviews request paths, encoded traversal patterns, affected endpoints, and alert metadata to decide whether the activity suggests probing or attempted access to unintended files. The investigation is about interpreting telemetry, not proving exploitation from one field alone.

This lab helps learners practice web log review, Wazuh alert interpretation, and triage of path traversal activity against application endpoints.
