COURSE PROJECT BRIEF · ORIGINAL TRAINING ASSIGNMENT

Cybersecurity Foundations: the work you will make

Create a defensive security assessment for a fictional organisation, including an asset inventory, threat model, hardening checklist and incident-response playbook.

What your work should demonstrate

  • Understand networks, identity and common threats
  • Analyse risks in fictional, authorised scenarios
  • Apply practical hardening and logging strategies
  • Write an actionable incident response and recovery plan

Build a reviewable evidence package

  1. Brief and source index. Name the audience, intended result, software and files included. Label fictional data and training scenarios clearly.
  2. Original editable work. Keep working files and dependencies. Document any external assets and the permission needed to use them.
  3. Checks and iterations. Show a baseline, one meaningful revision and the evidence you used to judge it. Include settings or test results where the course requires them.
  4. Reflection and viewing link. Explain your decisions, repaired problems and remaining limitations. Test the link while signed out, and keep passwords and personal records out of the submission.
