I am a dedicated Security Operations Centre (SOC) Analyst with a robust foundation in cybersecurity principles and a proven track record in monitoring, analyzing, and responding to security incidents. My experience includes conducting in-depth log analysis and collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams to enhance security measures and maintain a vigilant security posture.

Currently, I work as a Cyber Security Associate at British Telecom, where I monitor and analyze alerts from various security tools, lead incident response activities, and implement Identity Access Management solutions. My commitment to strengthening organizational compliance is reflected in my familiarity with auditing frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC2, and NIST.
