Course Project Network Security Penetration, Detection, and Forensics

I need help completing a Network Security lab project using virtual machines.

Requirements:

* Setup a local VM lab (Kali Linux + Ubuntu Server)
* Deploy vulnerable application (OWASP Juice Shop using Docker)
* Perform basic penetration testing (nmap, scanning, etc.)
* Capture traffic using Wireshark/tcpdump
* Implement Snort IDS with at least one custom rule
* Provide screenshots of all steps
* Assist with packet analysis and correlation

Deliverables:

* Screenshots of setup, attacks, and results
* Evidence of packet capture (pcap files)
* Snort rule and alert output
* Basic explanation of findings

Important:

* Work must be done on local VMs (NOT cloud/EC2)
* Must follow structured steps and produce realistic results
* Deadline: 3 days

Please share:

* Similar past work (cybersecurity / networking labs)
* Tools you will use
* Estimated delivery time

This is a university-level project, so accuracy matters.
