About the Book

Reclaim cybersecurity mastery with your own hands - no AI required. In a world obsessed with artificial intelligence and automated defense, AI-Free Homelab Security Projects brings security back to its roots - manual craftsmanship, deception engineering, and true operator-level control. This hands-on guide shows you how to design, build, and operate professional-grade honeypots, intrusion labs, and deception networks entirely within your homelab. What You'll Build InsideStep-by-step, you'll deploy and master open-source frameworks such as Cowrie, Dionaea, OpenCanary, Conpot, Glastopf, and TPOT, integrating them into a unified, AI-free deception environment. Learn how to: Construct isolated honeynets and VLAN-segmented deception zones with pfSense or OPNsense. Capture and analyze real-world attack attempts using Suricata, Zeek, and ELK stacks. Deploy industrial, web, and network honeypots that mimic real systems while staying contained. Build incident response and malware triage pipelines with Python/Bash utilities. Integrate logs into Grafana or Kibana for visual threat correlation and analysis. Hands-On and Real-WorldEach chapter includes a dedicated practice lab with repeatable configurations and testing workflows. From designing safe network topologies to performing manual forensics, you'll gain practical, reproducible experience in true human-driven threat analysis - no machine learning models, no automation shortcuts, just raw skill and situational awareness. Who This Book Is For Homelab builders who want to transform virtualization setups into interactive security environments. Security engineers and SOC analysts seeking to strengthen detection intuition and forensic depth. Ethical hackers and researchers exploring deception strategies, attack behavior, and controlled malware collection. Whether you're defending small networks or building a private SOC, this book gives you the structure, tools, and field discipline to simulate, detect, and respond to intrusions without reliance on AI systems. Build, Observe, Learn - Defend.By the end of this book, you will have a fully operational, multi-layered deception lab, complete with isolated honeypots, monitoring dashboards, and evidence-collection workflows. You'll understand attackers not through algorithms - but through real data, real logs, and real hands-on experimentation. Master the art of manual cybersecurity defense. Build your own AI-free deception ecosystem - and rediscover the human intelligence behind every secure network.
