SOC ANALYST / AGENTIC AI & AUTOMATION

SOC Analyst.
Building with
agentic AI.

I'm Walter. Outside my work as a SOC analyst, I build and use my own agent environment. That includes a daily SOC briefing, help with everyday tasks and security projects in my home lab.

The agents help with the work. I still need to understand what I'm asking them to do.

What I'm working on

Using AI ↗
01

SOC daily briefing

Current vulnerabilities, threat intelligence and updates from the Dutch NCSC, brought together to help me and my colleagues see what needs our attention the most.

02

Everyday agent use

I use agents for my calendar, appointments, drafting and replying to emails, and reading the news. This is a setup I use, not just a demo.

Home lab & automation

A personal vulnerability scanner for my home lab, alongside projects in self-hosting and automation. Knowing what's running matters when an agent is helping you change it.

PERSONAL NOTES

When an AI agent does exactly what you asked

PHP patching in my own environment, my daily SOC briefing and a reminder that a completed task isn't always a solved problem.
