Information Security Analyst at MINEDU, improving database accuracy and classifying information assets.

Peru
Message

At MINEDU, I implement a workflow to remediate inaccurate database data and classify information assets from an information security perspective. I also participate in drafting the Technical Standard for Data Processing.

At BNP Paribas Cardif Peru, I assessed vendor and partner security and reviewed policies aligned with the ISO 27001 framework. Earlier, at Bitel Peru, I administered Linux servers and databases, managed firewall policies, and monitored incidents with Splunk SIEM.

I’m training to become an Ethical Hacker through the Red Team diploma program at Universidad de Santiago de Chile and preparing for the CEH exam. I also offer penetration testing services as security audits for small businesses, and built a personal HomeLab for virtualized services and cybersecurity testing.
