UMGC Cybersecurity Technology MS Program Projects (hands-on security simulation and structured documentation)
Data CollectionBuilt and documented cybersecurity-focused lab activities involving vulnerability simulation, risk assessment, and threat intelligence analysis. Produced structured outputs such as risk calculations, control recommendations, IOC extraction, and alerting simulations that resemble labeled datasets for security use cases. Applied enterprise vulnerability management workflows including scanning, patch lifecycle tracking, and stakeholder reporting. • Created virtual labs to simulate network vulnerabilities and document remediation steps • Used threat intelligence feeds to classify attack patterns and extract IOCs • Selected and used Nessus/OpenVAS for vulnerability management and reporting dashboards • Performed troubleshooting and penetration testing workflows in controlled labs
