Visual · t34_playbooks_lab
Lab: playbooks pack. $IR_LAB only. Original Cyberlium.
Playbooks pack merges team to anatomy to runbook hygiene — paperwork before detection module.
Lessons 3-1–3-3 named IR team, playbook anatomy, and runbook hygiene. This lab merges three sections into one $IR_LAB playbooks artifact with M1 ethics and M2 planning cross-references. No ransomware payloads or stranger-network steps — playbook paperwork only. Next: Quiz — Team and Playbooks.
1. Lab contract: playbooks pack
Create $HOME/cyberlium-lab/t34-m03-l04-playbooks-lab.txt merging IR team, playbook anatomy, and runbook hygiene sections with $IR_LAB fictional phishing scenario and M1/M2 cross-references.
Optional: link one runbook step to a playbook phase from anatomy outline.

Run every command in the box — install first, then the usage lines — only on YOUR lab / program scope.
2. Cross-check ethics
Grep for ransomware payload refs, stranger-network isolation commands, live victim credentials — remove. Confirm all scenarios are $IR_LAB fictional.
Runbook steps use tool placeholders — no production secrets.
3. Lock the proof
chmod 600 on the pack. Quiz next — then Detection Intake.
Playbook literacy feeds detection and analysis lessons in M4.
