Ahchouch Abdessamad

I am a cybersecurity engineer specializing in defensive security (Blue Team) and network infrastructure with hands-on experience deploying SIEM stacks and configuring IDS/IPS.

In recent internships I engineered a robust ELK-based SIEM, integrated Suricata with custom detection rules, and validated OT/Modbus resilience through simulated attacks.

I have implemented hardening measures for web platforms, optimized SQL databases, and developed secure backend logic using PHP and JavaScript, alongside building responsive internal tools and providing IT support.

My technical toolbox includes Splunk, ELK, Wazuh, PfSense, TCP/IP, Linux, Windows Server AD, Python, Bash, Docker, and threat-hunting methodologies mapped to MITRE ATT&CK; I hold certifications including ISC2 CC, Cisco CCNA, and TryHackMe SOC Level 1.
