Build. Test. Understand.

Tools and experiments from outside the alert queue. Explore the automation work first, or dive into the lab.

SOC AUTOMATION

Publication scope. These are personal projects and experiments. Internal configurations, case data, and employer-owned source are excluded. Training-platform agents operate only in sanctioned or explicitly authorised scopes.

The incident-monitoring userscript explored workflow assistance; it did not perform autonomous investigations or escalations. No measured production impact is claimed.

Why build these?

Enrichment, correlation, and documentation can consume an analyst’s attention. Building small tools helps me understand what can be automated, where context gets lost, and where human judgement matters most.
