They give you a way to take what you’ve learned, apply it to something realistic, and then put evidence of that experience on your CV.
The problem is that a lot of beginners build random projects that hiring managers simply don’t care about.
For example, 'setting up a SIEM' and watching it is not really a project, it's a waste of time. You haven't learned anything. That's like trying to get experience in swimming by watching the water. Yoy need proper guidance and structure IF you want to learn properly.
So I put together 5 beginner-friendly cyber security projects specifically around areas that are in demand right now, including AI security, cloud, GRC, IAM and SOC.
More importantly, I show you how to actually put each project on your CV and which keywords can help you stand out when applying for jobs.
If you’re currently learning cyber security and wondering what you can actually put under the “Projects” section of your CV, this is for you.
