I am studying for my Network+ and my Sec+ hoping to shadow our Cyber Sec guy at work.

I want to set up a SIEM on my home network so I can be used to it's operations and how it works by the time I start messing with Pentesting stuff. Then I'm going to use it to try and track myself when I pentest myself.

I was looking into Graylog or Security Onion since they seem to have decent documentation (and I can find videos on how to set them up which is nice).

I was recommended building my own ELK stack and doing everything manually for maximum learning potential. Which I understand why this is a good idea, but I think I'd rather be as close to "baby's first SIEM" as possible or at least have a robust how-to guide.

What do you suggest?

Got any recs? I can generally talk my company into paying for most anything education wise, but Udemy style courses work with my ADHD the best.

Nothing that comes to mind, but simple search of the SIEM you are going to use in youtube and pirate bay should provide some good starters
