Cybersecurity-focused IT specialist transitioning into penetration testing.
What I'm looking for
I am an IT specialist passionate about cybersecurity, technology, and psychology, with a solid foundation in web development and hands-on security practice. I have practical experience as a Security Analyst in a SOC environment, monitoring, analysing and reporting critical security events using tools like Splunk, Nagios and Wireshark.
I focus on continuous learning and applying technical skills—Python scripting, Metasploit, Burp Suite and Git—while understanding the human factor in security. I contribute to incident prevention and system administration, and I am actively expanding into penetration testing through platforms like Hack The Box and personal projects.
