Cybersecurity Consultant at Digitaldefense assessing networks, applications, and AWS environments against security frameworks.
What I'm looking for
At Digitaldefense, I assess network infrastructure, endpoints, applications, and AWS environments through vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, Red Teaming, and security configuration audits. I evaluate controls against CIS Benchmarks, NIST, and OWASP and recommend remediation.
I work with domestic and international clients, translating security findings into business risks and actionable remediation strategies. I also prepare technical reports and executive summaries, develop policies and playbooks, and support compliance requirements.
At Jetking infotrain, I delivered hands-on cybersecurity training and conducted live labs using Burp Suite, Nmap, and Wireshark. I designed modules aligned with CEH and industry-standard certifications.
Earlier, I trained students and delivered corporate sessions at AISECT, and as a Network Security Intern at Netligent Technologies, I conducted vulnerability assessments and penetration tests, audited firewall configurations, and documented mitigation guidance. I’m certified in CEH v12 and eJPT v2, and ranked in the top 1% on TryHackMe Capture the Flag challenges.
