Charan 18
@charan18
I monitor, investigate, and strengthen SOC defenses through SIEM-driven threat detection.
What I'm looking for
I've supported SOC-style operations at Skill Horizon, monitoring and triaging more than 100 daily SIEM alerts while investigating suspicious log activity and supporting continuous incident response coverage.
In Tata Forage's virtual cybersecurity analyst experience, I built and tuned SIEM correlation rules that reduced false positives by 15% and used custom Splunk searches to increase threat detection accuracy by 20%.
I've analyzed SSH logs across Linux systems, investigated unauthorized-access attempts, and practiced end-to-end workflows from alert triage through investigation, escalation, and reporting.
I work with Splunk, QRadar, LogRhythm, CrowdStrike, Defender, and SentinelOne, with knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK, vulnerability management, email security, and SOC playbooks. I'm certified in ISC2 CC, Splunk Security Operations, Cisco Junior Analyst, and TryHackMe SOC Level 1, and I'm pursuing SC-200.
