I liked that the program was hands-on and practical, allowing me to work on real-world scenarios rather than just theory. The tasks helped build a clear understanding of incident response, threat analysis, and security operations workflows. I also appreciated the structured approach, which encouraged independent research while still providing enough guidance to learn effectively.

I liked that the program was very hands-on and realistic. The tasks followed a real SOC workflow, from triaging an alert to analysing logs, writing a firewall rule, and completing an incident postmortem. It helped me understand how cybersecurity teams actually work together during an incident, not just the technical side but also communication and documentation.

An excellent simulation of the SOC environment. The Python firewall task was a highlights, requiring deep analysis of exploit strings to protect the server. Following up with a postmortem report reinforced the importance of clear communication and governance in a corporate environment. I now feel much more confident in my ability to translate technical findings into actionable security measures
