    2026/11/12

    GRC analyst stuck in the same role? The job above you now wants someone who can hand evidence work to an AI agent and prove where it's wrong. This is a weekend project that shows you can.

Scan practice cloud plans with Prowler, write your own answer key, set up an AI agent to assess 20 controls, grade it, and catch the over-acceptance mistake AI agents make. Then turn it into a line for your resume.
