Lab — Atomic
Atomic simulation lab on `$PURPLE_LAB` — atomic test card, RoE stub, safe test checklist bundled.
Visual · t35_atomic_lab
Lab: atomic simulation pack on YOUR $PURPLE_LAB lab VM. Original Cyberlium.
Opening
Ship atomic simulation artifacts from YOUR lab VM — test card, RoE, safe checklist — zero stranger-network sims or weaponized playbooks.
On YOUR `$PURPLE_LAB` per brief: (1) scope proof — lab VM hostname and RoE reference labeled; (2) atomic test card Module 6-1; (3) purple RoE stub Module 6-2; (4) safe test checklist Module 6-3; (5) detection validation result stub (telemetry observed, rule fired/not fired honesty); (6) integrity — `$PURPLE_LAB` only, no stranger org sims, no prod atomics, no weaponized red playbooks; (7) chmod 600 pack. Cross-link Modules 4–5 detection rules — professional atomic literacy, not offensive cookbooks.
1. Lab deliverables
Atomic card + RoE + safe checklist cross-indexed to one lab VM.
Detection validation cites honest rule-fire result — not fabricated pass.

Primary tools to practice this lesson: grep, curl. Reference sites: Atomic Red Team (https://github.com/redcanaryco/atomic-red-team); MITRE ATT&CK (https://attack.mitre.org/); Sigma (https://sigmahq.io/). Run every command in the box — install first, then the usage lines — only on YOUR lab / program scope.
2. Quality bar
Each row cites lab VM source — not generic atomic blog advice.
Zero stranger-network or prod references in pack.
3. Teardown
Cleanup verified; notes chmod 600; snapshot restored per brief.
Archive stub optional per brief.
4. What you ship: atomic lab pack
Atomic card + RoE + safe checklist + validation result + integrity — chmod 600.

6. Wrong vs right: stranger networks vs YOUR purple lab
Worked failure — same MSF word, opposite target. Right never needs a café Wi-Fi or classmate laptop.
Wrong
Atomic lab includes full attack chain cookbook as bonus deliverable.
Right
Atomic lab pack on `$PURPLE_LAB` lab VM. Next: quiz.
Mission: atomic lab
1) Scope and lab VM proof. 2) Atomic test card and RoE stub. 3) Safe test checklist and validation result. 4) Integrity block; chmod 600.
