What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth, innovation, and collaboration in cyber security.

I am a seasoned Cyber Security professional with a passion for safeguarding digital landscapes and a proven track record in Security Operations Center (SOC) operations, Incident Response, Threat Hunting, and Malware Analysis. My journey in the field has equipped me with a diverse skill set, allowing me to lead risk assessment initiatives and develop advanced monitoring systems to detect and respond to cyber threats effectively.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Senior Associate Information Security Analyst at NTT Data and Tier 2 SOC Analyst at DSEC Consulting Ltd. I have successfully conducted forensic investigations, developed technical documentation, and mentored junior analysts, all while ensuring the timely identification and mitigation of security risks. My commitment to continuous improvement and knowledge sharing has contributed significantly to the organizations I have been a part of.
