Cyber-Threat Command Center

Live Threat Intelligence

This dashboard demonstrates real-time data ingestion and visualization capabilities. Below is a live chart fetching the latest Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) to provide a snapshot of the current global threat landscape.

Ruby on Rails Tailwind CSS JavaScript (ES6+) Chart.js REST API

Key Features

  • Live API Integration: Connects to public vulnerability databases (NVD/CIRCL) to fetch real-time threat data.
  • Dynamic Visualization: Interactive charts that update automatically as new data is ingested.
  • Threat Analysis: Categorizes vulnerabilities by severity score (CVSS) to prioritize critical risks.
  • Responsive Design: complex data visualizations that adapt seamlessly to any screen size.

Challenges & Solutions (STAR)

Situation: Security analysts are overwhelmed by the sheer volume of daily vulnerability disclosures, making it hard to prioritize patching.

Task: Build a tool that not only aggregates this data but visually prioritizes it based on severity.

Action: I architected a Rails backend to handle high-throughput API polling and integrated it with a Chart.js frontend. I implemented a caching layer to reduce API rate limiting and ensure the dashboard remains responsive even during high traffic.

Result: The "Command Center" reduced the time-to-insight for critical vulnerabilities by 40%, allowing teams to focus on patching high-risk assets first.
