02233 - Network Security (2025)

Here you can find a docker-compose file to start all the required services and applications we are going to use throughout the Network Security course and its laboratory exercises.

First, compose up the containers.

For the kali environment, open https://localhost:6901/ in your browser, and continue with credentials:

User : kasm_user
Password : password

To use bloodhound, you have to start the neo4j service:

sudo neo4j start

sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
echo \
  "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
  $(. /etc/os-release && echo "${UBUNTU_CODENAME:-$VERSION_CODENAME}") stable" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
