About

Hi, I'm Mitch
I'm a Cyber Security Engineer and MSc student in Cyber Security & Digital Forensics, with five years' experience in threat detection, SIEM engineering, and incident response. I started Gromit’s Lab as a digital garden to explore, document, and share open-source tools, research projects, and security techniques I use and build.
Skills & Focus Areas
- Security Architecture & Cloud Security (Azure / M365)
- Threat Detection, SIEM, Honeypots & Automation
- Digital Forensics & Incident Response
- Python for Security Data Analysis
My Mission
I aim to make cybersecurity knowledge more accessible through open documentation, original research, and practical tools. Whether it's automating incident response, decoding authentication protocols, or reverse-engineering forensic traces — I believe in learning by building and sharing.
Gromit’s Lab reflects that ethos — a place to prototype, publish, and sometimes play.
Current Projects
- Adaptive Honeypot System – using MITRE ATT&CK mapping and report generation
- Authentication Protocol Explorer – visualising handshake flows for MSc blog series
- APT Emulation Platform – my MSc thesis platform for blue team testbed
The Lab
Gromit's Lab isn't a company — it's my personal skunkworks. But every good engineer needs a dogged assistant, and Gromit represents the curiosity, mischief, and love of experimentation that fuels this space.
