Message

At Sharkstriker, I investigate 80–100 security alerts daily in a 24×7 SOC, using Microsoft Sentinel and Elastic SIEM to examine activity across Windows systems, firewalls, VPNs, EDR solutions, and honeypots.

I hunt for abnormal authentication and potential lateral movement, analyze suspicious executables, and correlate indicators of compromise. My investigations have included APT and ransomware campaigns such as MuddyWater and Silver Fox.

I’ve contributed to SIEM detection engineering and EDR deployment, including testing Elastic Defend integration with SOC monitoring. Earlier, I worked on cybersecurity research and risk analysis as an SDLC Intern at CyberEQ and assisted cybercrime investigators at Gurugram Cyber Crime Cell.
