Hands-On ModSecurity and Logging
summary
A live demo shows a deliberately vulnerable PHP shop that is exploited with sqlmap to add fake employees, logs full SQL queries to a file, and centralizes those logs with Elastic Stack for central logging (Filebeat → Elasticsearch → Kibana). A side-by-side Apache instance runs ModSecurity blocks SQLi patterns in blocking mode and successfully returns HTTP 403 for injections. Packetbeat is used for network-level visibility as Packetbeat for network visibility. All components are deployed via Ansible and work end-to-end.
