shewag-secops is a solo-built, free cybersecurity training platform focused entirely on the Blue Team — SOC analysts, incident responders, and threat hunters who protect organisations from real attacks.
When I started in cybersecurity, I quickly found that most free training was either heavily offensive-focused, too theoretical, or hidden behind expensive subscription walls. Blue Team skills — the skills defenders actually need every day — were underserved.
shewag-secops is my answer to that gap. Every lab here is based on real attack patterns, real tooling, and real methodology that SOC analysts use in production environments. No padding, no fluff, no paywalls.
Labs are designed to be completed in under 2 hours, run entirely offline on your own machine, and leave you with something concrete: a detection rule, an incident report, or a new skill you can apply on the job tomorrow.
Every lab starts with a realistic scenario pulled from real-world incident patterns, not made-up exercises.
Download once, run anywhere. No cloud dependency, no account, no tracking. Your lab, your machine.
All labs map to MITRE ATT&CK TTPs so your learning directly translates to industry frameworks.
Every lab includes a detailed walkthrough — collapsed by default so you can try first, then check your work.
Pick a lab and start your Blue Team training. No account needed.
