Hi,

Is there any certification or environment for practicing blue team skills?

    If you have the know how and a suitable computer, you can use Splunk to monitor VMs and use a book like 30Bird's CySA+ book/VM labs to build your skillset.

    There are two different types of blue teams, imo. The one where you live in a SOC and you want infosec knowledge. These can be CompTia's CySA+ or maybe something from SANS/GIAC. For labs, Security Onion is a place you could start. That said, I think all of the blue type stuff are self-hosted, rather than something you can log into and play around with.
    If you're new to infosec, there's always the Security+ -> SSCP/CISSP track to follow, too.


    And the rest are people who secure systems/design security, and often any cert you can think of that goes over how to build/operate a technology is going to be worthwhile. You want to secure Azure or AWS? Yes, there are security tracks, but you also need to know how to build/operate Azure and AWS.

    sign up for the Splunk fundamentals 1 - its free and fun to complete and you get a completion cert at the end. You can then pay for CORE user if you want to go further.
