Security Operations Engineer at Encoura / Encora, tuning SIEM rules and reducing endpoint alert noise by 30–40%.
What I'm looking for
At Encoura / Encora, I lead escalated incident analysis and remediation across a multi-client environment. I manage CrowdStrike Falcon monitoring across 500+ endpoints and have adjusted detection logic to improve visibility and reduce noise by an estimated 30–40%.
I review SIEM correlation rules to reduce false positives while preserving detection coverage. I also operationalise threat intelligence from SANS Internet Storm Center and map security findings to MITRE ATT&CK techniques.
At Accenture | Security Practice, I analysed Microsoft Defender and Google Cloud Security Command Center alerts for an enterprise client, and investigated incidents from IDS, IPS, firewall, and proxy sources for a financial services client. I also analysed phishing emails and produced weekly trend reports.
Earlier, at Black Knight, CAMS, and Comodo, I worked on SOC incidents, IOC collection, and SIEM monitoring using tools including IBM QRadar, Splunk, and Comodo Cwatch. I’ve also developed SOC procedures adopted as standard practice and operationalised security analytics to help discover security and fraud events.
