How the work fits together

A security foundation in practice

Security becomes useful when concepts connect to controls and incidents.

The aim is to reason across the environment, not memorise disconnected definitions.
01Understand

Threats, networks, identities, cloud and security principles.

02Harden

Apply baseline controls to systems and access.

03Detect

Use events, alerts and evidence to recognise problems.

04Respond

Work through incidents with disciplined triage and documentation.
