What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a cyber security role where I can handle monitoring, incident response, vulnerability assessments, and compliance—while growing through hands-on work, audits, and security training in a supportive team.

I’m currently working as a Cyber security Technician, providing support in monitoring, incident response, vulnerability assessments, compliance, network security, training, threat research, and project implementation. I assist with security systems, audits, and user access controls, with a strong focus on risk management and careful execution.

Previously, I worked as an Information Systems IT Support Specialist (GDIS Dubai DDP China Center) from Feb 2022 to Jan 2024, supporting staff and customers with IT equipment maintenance, troubleshooting, device security policies, and software implementation. I also contributed to IT-related projects and deployments, building a practical foundation for ethical hacking and penetration testing.
