Build Industry-Based Projects

Secure the cloud against advanced persistent threats.

AWS Data Exfiltration Defense

Simulate an attacker gaining access via a leaky S3 bucket. They attempt to pivot to EC2 instances and exfiltrate data. Your job: Detect the anomaly using GuardDuty, investigate with CloudTrail, and automate the blocking of the attacker's IP using Lambda and WAF.

Defense Chain:

GuardDuty Detection CloudTrail Forensics Lambda Automation WAF Blocking

Kubernetes Cluster Breakout

Deploy a vulnerable microservices app on EKS/GKE. Exploit a container vulnerability to gain shell access, then attempt a container escape to the host node. Finally, implement Pod Security Policies and Network Policies to harden the cluster against this specific attack vector.

Defense Chain:

Container Hardening Runtime Security Network Policies RBAC Audit

Azure AD Privilege Escalation

Simulate an insider threat attempting to elevate privileges within Azure Active Directory (Entra ID). Use tools to identify misconfigured roles and service principals. Then, configure Conditional Access Policies and PIM (Privileged Identity Management) to lock down the environment.

Defense Chain:

Identity Protection Conditional Access PIM Configuration Audit Logging

Multi-Cloud Ransomware Defense

Design a disaster recovery strategy for a hybrid enterprise spanning AWS and Azure. Simulate a ransomware attack encrypting cross-cloud storage. Execute your Business Continuity Plan (BCP) to restore critical services from isolated, immutable backups.

Defense Chain:

Immutable Backups Cross-Region DR Encryption Mgmt BCP Testing
