Our starting point was understanding the data landscape across the three core security platforms in use: Tenable, Claroty, and Microsoft XDR.
Each platform held critical but siloed security intelligence: Tenable surfacing vulnerability and exposure data, Claroty providing visibility into OT/IoT assets and network risks, and Microsoft XDR delivering threat detection.
We came up with a framework that would integrate these 3 platforms together.
With a clear picture of all three data sources, we engineered a unified backend capable of pulling live data from Tenable, Claroty, and Microsoft XDR into a single, consolidated pipeline.
This involved building API connectors for each platform, normalising data into a consistent schema, and establishing the logic to aggregate and correlate security events, vulnerabilities, and asset information in real time.
The result was a robust backend layer that served as the single source of eliminating the need to toggle between platforms and ensuring all data was accessible from one place.
Seatrium operates across multiple sites with both IT and Operational Technology (OT) infrastructure — yet their security data was fragmented across three separate platforms: Claroty, Tenable, and Microsoft Defender XDR. No single operator could see the complete threat picture, and analysts were losing critical time switching between tools instead of responding to threats.
Group S21 would like to thank our Capstone instructors, Dr Qin Yan Xia, Dr Kan Ee May and Ms Belinda Seet, for their valuable advice and guidance throughout the development of SHIELD360.
We would also like to thank Seatrium for their generous support and collaboration in making this project possible. Special thanks to Shafie and John for their deep involvement, consistent feedback, and hands-on guidance at every stage of the project.
We would also like to express our gratitude to Bao Xiang for the administrative support provided. Finally, we would like to thank Leng Wee for the overall direction and trust placed in our team.
At Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), we believe that the power of design roots from the understanding of human experiences and needs, to create for innovation that enhances and transforms the way we live. This is why we develop a multi-disciplinary curriculum delivered v ia a hands-on, collaborative learning pedagogy and environment that concludes in a Capstone project.
The Capstone project is a collaboration between companies and senior-year students. Students of different majors come together to work in teams and contribute their technology and design expertise to solve real-world challenges faced by companies. The Capstone project will culminate with a design showcase, unveiling the innovative solutions from the graduating cohort.
The Capstone Design Showcase is held annually to celebrate the success of our graduating students and their enthralling multi-disciplinary projects they have developed.
