Project Roadmap

A rigorous 4-project spine that mirrors actual industry workflows, augmented by targeted add-on mini-projects.

Core 4-Project Spine

Step-by-step development phases mirroring real assessment rounds

★ Industry Mirrored
Solo Project 1 — SOC Shift 1
Week 1
Mirrors: SOC triage screen
Project Brief

Assess a supplied vulnerable application against a specified checklist and write findings to a given report template. (First simulated SOC shift: a small alert queue).

Solo Project 2 — SIEM Build
Week 2
Mirrors: SIEM tool proficiency round
Project Brief

A target with no checklist. Prioritise findings by real risk to a stated business, not by CVSS alone, and justify the ordering. (A SIEM tuning/detection-rule project).

Pair Project — Joint Incident Response
Week 3
Mirrors: Full SOC triage under pressure
Project Brief

One student hardens a system, the other assesses it, then they swap and both report. Each must defend a decision the other made. (A live, mentor-run shift).

Capstone — Final Shift
Weeks 4–5
Mirrors: Full funnel, end to end
Project Brief

Student-proposed security review of a system they built in another stream or with permission, delivered as a full report with remediation guidance. (A full, time-boxed SOC shift).
