What I'm looking for

I am seeking an entry-level cybersecurity role where I can apply hands-on skills in detection, pen-testing, and monitoring, learn from experienced teams, and contribute to ISO-aligned security improvements.

I am a cybersecurity engineering graduate with hands-on internship experience in firewall rule optimization, penetration testing, WAF deployment, and security monitoring aligned with ISO 27001.

During final-year and industry internships at Docaposte, AXA GO, and Attijariwafa Bank SecOps, I standardized multi-tool security indicators, improved network flow performance, and implemented automated monitoring and web-application defenses.

I bring practical skills in intrusion detection, incident analysis, secured CI/CD, and machine-learning anomaly detection, and I am eager to contribute to a security team where I can continue learning and strengthen organizational defenses.
