# Introduction to GitHub
# 👋 Hi there! I'm **Jordan Moran Cabello**

_Get started using GitHub in less than an hour._
I'm a **Network Security Engineer** and **cybersecurity student** with a strong foundation in **network infrastructure, firewall management**, and **cloud security**.

## Welcome
---

## 🧠 What I Do

- 🛡️ Design and secure network infrastructures (on-premises and cloud)
- 🔍 Analyze and forward logs to SIEMs like Splunk and ELK
- ⚙️ Automate basic incident response workflows with TheHive and Cortex
- 🌐 Harden Linux/Windows systems and deploy IDS/IPS with Suricata
- 📦 Build labs to simulate real-world attack and defense scenarios
- 🐍 Develop cybersecurity tools and labs with Python (MAC spoofing, ARP spoofing, packet sniffers, vulnerability scanners)

People use GitHub to build some of the most advanced technologies in the world. Whether you’re visualizing data or building a new game, there’s a whole community and set of tools on GitHub that can help you do it even better. GitHub Skills’ “Introduction to GitHub” exercise guides you through everything you need to start contributing in less than an hour.

- **Who is this for**: New developers, new GitHub users, and students.
- **What you'll learn**: We'll introduce repositories, branches, commits, and pull requests.
- **What you'll build**: We'll make a short Markdown file you can use as your [profile README](https://docs.github.com/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/managing-your-profile-readme).
- **Prerequisites**: None. This exercise is a great introduction for your first day on GitHub.
- **How long**: This exercise takes less than one hour to complete.

In this exercise, you will:
## 📚 What I'm Building Here

1. Create a branch
2. Commit a file
3. Open a pull request
4. Merge your pull request
🚀 A full practical cybersecurity lab environment simulating real SOC operations (Splunk, ELK, TheHive, Cortex, MISP).

### How to start this exercise
🔍 Threat detection and hunting scenarios using real logs from web servers, firewalls, and Windows servers.

1. Right-click **Copy Exercise** and open the link in a new tab.
🧰 Python-based cybersecurity tools and scripts for network scanning, spoofing, sniffing, and basic red teaming.

<a id="copy-exercise" href="https://github.com/new?template_owner=skills&template_name=introduction-to-github&owner=%40me&name=skills-introduction-to-github&description=Exercise:+Introduction+to+GitHub&visibility=public">
<img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/📠_Copy_Exercise-008000" height="25pt"/>
</a>
☁️ Demonstrations of cloud security practices (Azure) with a focus on real-world threat mitigation.

2. In the new tab, most of the prompts will automatically fill in for you.
- For owner, choose your personal account or an organization to host the repository.
- We recommend creating a public repository, as private repositories will [use Actions minutes](https://docs.github.com/en/billing/managing-billing-for-github-actions/about-billing-for-github-actions).
- Scroll down and click the **Create repository** button at the bottom of the form.
📘 An open portfolio showcasing practical skills in network defense, SIEM management, cloud security, and ethical hacking.

3. After your new repository is created, wait about 20 seconds for the exercise to be prepared and buttons updated. You will continue working from your copy of the exercise.
- The **Copy Exercise** button will deactivate, changing to gray.
- The **Start Exercise** button will activate, changing to green.
- You will likely need to refresh the page.
🛡️ My goal is to document real, practical projects that reflect the skills needed to operate, defend, and monitor complex environments — preparing for professional roles in SOC and Cloud Security.

4. Click **Start Exercise**. Follow the step-by-step instructions and feedback will be provided as you progress.
