Ali Raza

I am a hands-on cybersecurity engineer with practical experience in vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and threat analysis. I have led audits, developed mitigation strategies with IT teams, and strengthened security postures through risk management and incident response.

I built a Threat Detection SOC using Security Onion, Splunk, and TheHive, ran simulations and automated responses, and executed end-to-end penetration tests using Metasploit, Nessus, and SQLmap with detailed remediation reports. I apply analytical thinking and technical rigor to detect, investigate, and mitigate threats.

I hold multiple cybersecurity certifications and contribute to security-focused projects and volunteer efforts, and I continuously expand my skills in SIEM, forensics, malware analysis, and automation to drive measurable improvements in network integrity.
