@bryannyariki
I investigate security alerts, test web applications, and strengthen detection and remediation workflows.
AustraliaWhat I'm looking for
I’ve built hands-on SOC investigation skills through TryHackMe SOC Level 1, using Splunk and Elastic to monitor events, triage alerts, correlate logs, and reconstruct incident timelines.
I’ve tested DVWA in Kali Linux for SQL injection, XSS, command injection, and file upload vulnerabilities. I document findings against the OWASP Top 10, calculate CVSS v3.1 scores, and provide prioritised remediation recommendations.
At Phoenix Aviation, I supported IT operations and secure web development, applying secure coding practices and cybersecurity controls that reduced the attack surface identified in internal code audits by 60%.
I’m completing a Master of Cybersecurity (Advanced) and bring a secure-development perspective to offensive and defensive security work. I’m ready to contribute to a shift-based SOC environment while improving detection capabilities and operational procedures alongside senior analysts.
