AFAF TIZAOUI
@afaftizaoui
Cybersecurity engineer graduate seeking a first role to protect information systems.
What I'm looking for
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.
