What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a security operations role where I can run SIEM/endpoint monitoring, improve detection rules, tune for low-noise alerts, and contribute to incident triage and threat investigations—while growing into threat detection engineering.

I’m a cybersecurity analyst with hands-on consulting experience supporting security monitoring, endpoint detection, and file integrity monitoring for financial services clients in Lagos. I analyse security events, validate detection rules, and help identify configuration gaps before they become incidents.

In my current role, I monitor and analyse endpoint and SIEM environments across Splunk, Elastic, Wazuh, and Sentinel, strengthening incident triage and threat investigation through clear alert logs and detection validation. I also support Carbon Black EDR operations by tuning policies to reduce false positives, and continuously review Tripwire Enterprise monitoring rules to catch misconfigurations, disconnected endpoints, or integration gaps early.

I’ve contributed to an Entrust PKI rollout by configuring AD-LDS and running endpoint agent deployment testing for a major Nigerian financial institution. Alongside my internship work building risk awareness for non-technical stakeholders and producing OSINT-driven vulnerability reports using OWASP-aligned methodologies, my focus remains analytical documentation, practical improvements, and reliable SOC workflows.
