Snapshot
Kronos is a unified cybersecurity interface that brings scattered tools into one platform. It was designed to help security teams monitor, investigate, and act quickly without switching between multiple systems.
Audience: Medium to large enterprises
Platform: Responsive web, scalable to SOC screens
Team: 3–5 people (design + UX + strategy)
My role: UI/UX design, information architecture, dashboards, design system, data visualisation
Problem
Security teams were juggling fragmented tools, audits, and inconsistent data. This made threat visibility low, slowed down investigations, and reduced confidence in day-to-day operations.
Project goal
We set out to create a single interface that standardizes insights, adapts to different user roles, and makes investigations faster and traceable.
My contributions
I focused on designing the interface layer that brought clarity and usability to complex workflows. Specifically, I:
Designed stage-based dashboards for quick overviews and deeper investigations
Built modular components (lists, alerts, popovers, drill downs) that scaled across use cases
Developed a flexible design system to keep consistency across varied screen sizes and environments
Designed for dark modes to suit SOC operations
Created actionable data visuals that made signals easier to interpret
Process
As a team, we mapped roles and journeys across SOC workflows.
My part included:
Structuring information architecture so analysts could act with less noise
Prototyping dashboards that highlighted the most urgent signals first
Embedding monitoring, investigation, and reporting flows into a single interface
Why it’s better
Reduced tool hopping and context switching
Faster investigations with drill downs embedded in dashboards
Clear visibility of alerts, reports, and actions in one flow
Consistent UI that worked from desktops to large SOC wall displays
Outcome
We delivered a polished, modular interface that centralized security operations. Security teams could monitor, investigate, audit, and report in one ecosystem.
The result improved speed, confidence, and decision-making in high-pressure environments.
Highlights
Reduced friction by keeping actions inside dashboards
Standardised insights across diverse team workflows
Extended design to editorial-style reports and communication touchpoints
Reflection
Working on Kronos reinforced how critical design is in high-stakes environments. For me, the challenge was to balance futuristic aesthetics with practical clarity under pressure. By blending both, I was able to shape an interface that looked bold yet stayed functional when it mattered most.

This project was a collaboration among 3–4 members, with roles shifting over time.
