This project focused on detecting malicious outbound activity at scale by evaluating outbound traffic against known malicious infrastructure. The goal was to identify suspicious patterns quickly enough to support earlier detection of compromised workloads.

The work was useful because it connected network-level visibility to a concrete operational outcome: finding compromised environments before they could continue communicating with suspicious destinations unchecked. Instead of treating outbound traffic as generic telemetry, the system used it as a signal for compromise and abuse detection.

It reflects the kind of security work I want this site to emphasize more clearly: practical detection and response engineering that helps teams identify real risk across large production systems.
