What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a challenging role where I can contribute my expertise to safeguarding critical IT infrastructure and enhancing organizational security.

At Risk Associates, I use CTI platforms including Cyble Vision for threat exposure monitoring, IOC tracking, and emerging threat identification. I also optimize EDR and EPP solutions, including Kaspersky EPP, to improve threat visibility and minimize false positive alerts.

Previously, as an Information Security Analyst at Rewterz, I investigated alerts, validated and escalated incidents, and supported incident response through containment, eradication, and recovery.

At Rewterz, I also prepared monthly security reports and collaborated with teams to enhance SOC processes and detection capabilities. I performed a gap assessment for United Bank Limited (UBL) to identify compliance gaps and align practices with industry standards.

For my final year project, I deployed ELK Stack and built a custom SIEM control environment focused on networking and cybersecurity, achieving three consecutive milestones across Linux and Windows environments.
