Message

At Bridgestone GCC, I operate security tools and analyze threat intelligence to enrich detections, identify IOCs, and hunt for adversary activity across APAC operations.

I act as the primary contact with the MSSP for incident response, driving investigation, containment, and remediation across endpoint and cloud environments. I also triage alerts in Microsoft Defender XDR and Sentinel, correlating endpoint, identity, and email telemetry with MITRE ATT&CK.

At Accenture India Pvt Ltd, I monitored and investigated security incidents across global enterprise environments and supported EMEA security operations. I led response efforts for high-severity incidents, achieving a 95% success rate in rapid containment.

At Accenture, I also led proactive threat hunts and used KQL to analyze multi-source telemetry, improve detection coverage, and reduce false positives. I developed Python automation scripts to make investigations more efficient.
