Affah Peggie
@affahpeggie
Cybersecurity professional with hands-on network, penetration testing, and project management experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a cybersecurity graduate with practical experience across network administration, penetration testing, and software project coordination. I blend technical troubleshooting with organized project logistics gained through internships in both public and private sectors.
During a software project management internship at Huawei, I supported rollout planning, hardware logistics, stakeholder communication, and cross-functional coordination for regional projects. I also completed network and cyber-focused internships where I implemented network segmentation, device maintenance, social-engineering proofs-of-concept, and systems administration.
My project work includes penetration testing with a Raspberry Pi using Metasploit and OpenVAS and network analysis with Python Scapy for packet capture and inspection. I am experienced with vulnerability assessment, SNMP enumeration, and practical packet analysis workflows.
I seek roles where I can apply technical cybersecurity skills alongside project coordination to improve system security posture and support delivery of IT projects. I bring attention to documentation, cross-team communication, and continuous learning to drive results.
