This section is where I document hands-on projects that bring my cybersecurity learning into practice. Each project focuses on a different aspect of security monitoring, detection engineering, and SOC analyst workflows.
The goal of these projects is simple:
Take real-world data (logs, events, traffic)
Ingest it into Splunk (or other tools)
Build detections and dashboards
Share lessons learned along the way
Why Projects Matter
Certifications are great for theory, but hands-on projects prove skills. Each exercise gives me deeper experience in:
Data onboarding and parsing
Writing Splunk searches (SPL)
Understanding attacker behavior through logs
Designing dashboards for quick SOC insights
