Overview

The work examined a HYDROLOGIC deployment for a 500-room hotel and prepared hands-on tooling for IoT security analysis. Deliverables included a component inventory, STRIDE-based threat model with risk ratings and mitigations, and Python tooling that loaded nested JSON into pandas and generated sensor logs including anomaly cases.

What I've accomplished

I produced a STRIDE-based threat model with risk ratings and mitigation recommendations for a 500-room hotel's HYDROLOGIC system, and I wrote Python code to normalize nested JSON and generate realistic sensor logs with injected anomalies.

Project breakdown

Faced a 500-room hotel's HYDROLOGIC system, I inventoried devices, cloud API, dashboard and remote controls, applied STRIDE to each component, rated risks (critical/high/medium) and produced mitigation recommendations and an executive summary.

Access

The project prepared IoT data, wrote Python code in Google Colab to load and normalize nested JSON into pandas DataFrames, and implemented a sensor log generator that produced normal readings plus anomalies (leaks, blockages, stuck sensors).
