SOC Analyst Portfolio
Golden Eye
Entry-level SOC Analyst focused on threat detection, alert triage, log analysis, and incident response. This portfolio presents a realistic enterprise-style home lab built to demonstrate job-ready security operations skills.
Professional Summary
Built to show applied security operations skills, not just tool familiarity.
This site documents a complete SOC lab designed around the same core workflow used by real analysts: collect data, validate alerts, investigate suspicious activity, assess impact, and communicate findings clearly.
The environment includes a dedicated SIEM, monitored endpoints, a Linux server, and an attacker machine to produce realistic security events across multiple operating systems.
“The goal is not to say I installed a tool. The goal is to prove I can detect activity, investigate evidence, and explain what happened.”
