Cyber Security
Projects
Alongside my design work, I'm actively transitioning into cyber security. I'm pursuing certifications and working through hands-on projects spanning incident response, network security, Linux administration, and threat analysis. Here's a snapshot of that work.
Analysed a DDoS attack on an organisation's network using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework to structure the incident response and recommendations.
View Case Study →Used Linux commands to manage and harden file permissions for users and groups, enforcing the principle of least privilege across a simulated environment.
View Case Study →Conducted a full internal security audit for Botium Toys, identifying risks, threats, and vulnerabilities across their assets and recommending controls.
View Case Study →Strengthened an organisation's network security posture following a breach — analysing the attack surface and implementing hardening measures to reduce future risk.
View Case Study →Used tcpdump to capture and analyse live TCP traffic, identifying patterns and anomalies to support network monitoring and threat detection workflows.
View Case Study →Enabled and configured Windows Firewall rules to control inbound and outbound traffic, reducing the attack surface on a Windows environment.
Report coming soonConfigured and updated Microsoft Defender to ensure real-time protection, scheduled scanning, and up-to-date threat definitions across a managed device.
