I have completed the Network Security Monitoring with Suricata course.  
But I have not been able to access the training VM download. Is this VM paid? Are there any that are free to access?  
I appreciate your help on this topic.  
The version of Suricata I use is V 7.0.3.  
I am using Kali Linux.  
I followed the installation steps in the official documentation.

It should be in the first lab exercise link. When you click on the link it should start downloading it.

It doesn’t download it.  
It sends me to a login window and no download option is seen.

It should be available for download but maybe best to ask Pluralsight’s support.  
If any problems also please feel free to send a query to `info@oisf.net`
