I monitor vulnerabilities and security alerts to strengthen enterprise defenses.
United Arab EmiratesWhat I'm looking for
I'm building practical security operations experience through my SecOps internship at Teksalah LLC, where I monitor and triage vulnerability findings across enterprise assets using Qualys VMDR.
I support remediation tracking and patch deployment coordination with Qualys Patch Management, and conduct web application security assessments using Qualys WAS.
I also assist email security operations in Mimecast and support incident response workflows in CrowdStrike Falcon by monitoring alerts, conducting initial investigations, and documenting findings.
My projects include an AI-powered SSH/Telnet honeypot, a Snort-based intrusion detection system, SIFT forensic analysis, and a man-in-the-middle attack simulation. I'm focused on building standards-based security expertise in an enterprise environment.
