Digital Twin III – “The Cyber-Hardened Portfolio”
Hack me if you can! Your portfolio is no longer just a showcase of your achievements — it is now an active target. Every professional Web application backed by a database of users is a potential entry point for attackers, and the developers who succeed are those who can defend, monitor, and continuously harden their systems.
Digital Twin III challenges you to transform your personal portfolio into a cyber-secured, intelligence-driven digital asset — one that not only looks impressive, but proves its resilience under real-world conditions.
This is where your skills move beyond basic deployment. You will implement a secure content management system, protect private user data, integrate defensive controls like WAF and firewalls, and design visible countermeasures against threats such as:
- SQL injection
- Prompt injection
- Authentication/authorization failures
- Broken access control
- Malicious payloads
- Automated bot attacks
Your portfolio becomes a live cyber lab — built to be tested, attacked, and improved through real telemetry.
You will upload evidence of each security layer: logs, attack statistics, CVSS scoring, risk reports, penetration test results, remediation notes, and resilience patterns. Your Digital Twin doesn’t claim to be secure — it demonstrates it.
By the end of this course, your public website will:
- Host your professional identity & project content
- Detect and block real cyber threats in real-time
- Analyse attacker behaviours
- Communicate your cyber maturity to employers
- Show your ability to manage security as a lifecycle — not a checkbox
This is your opportunity to build something professionally defensible — a deployable, auditable case study that proves you understand the realities of modern cyber security.
Welcome to Digital Twin III — the version of you that cannot be exploited.
