What I'm looking for

I'm looking to grow into a full-time Tier 1 SOC Analyst role where I can monitor live environments, triage alerts, investigate incidents, and learn from senior analysts.

I'm currently monitoring three live client environments at SecureSleuths through Wazuh SIEM/XDR, including a production AI system. I review alerts and logs for anomalous activity, assess severity, escalate confirmed incidents, and maintain structured shift handovers.

During SecureSleuths pre-onboarding, I deployed a complete Wazuh environment on Ubuntu and connected a Windows 11 endpoint. I built a custom brute-force detection rule mapped to MITRE ATT&CK T1110 and investigated alerts using a six-step triage workflow.

I've enriched IOCs with VirusTotal, AbuseIPDB, AlienVault OTX, and GreyNoise, and documented investigations using NIST 800-61. My DFIR work includes identifying Yellow Cockatoo RAT artifacts, validating an RDP brute-force incident, and analyzing NetSupport Manager RAT C2 traffic from PCAP data.

Outside client monitoring, I build hands-on labs for Active Directory monitoring, malware persistence investigation, Linux auditing, and network traffic analysis. I'm actively building toward a full-time Tier 1 SOC Analyst role.
