Dipesh Kumar

I am a cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience in SOC operations, vulnerability assessment, and penetration testing gained through internships and university projects. I focus on practical threat detection and incident response using tools like ELK Stack, Wireshark, and Snort.

My work includes automating SOC workflows with Python to ingest logs, enrich alerts, and query threat intelligence APIs to accelerate investigations. I have built dashboards in Kibana to visualize security events and detect attack vectors such as credential stuffing and DNS tunneling.

I have conducted web application security assessments identifying critical issues such as outdated software, directory listing, exposed error logs, and SQL injection, and provided remediation recommendations including input sanitization and WAF implementation. I also developed a virtualized network intrusion detection system and configured firewall rules to block malicious traffic.

I communicate technical findings clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, mentor peers on tools and analysis techniques, and contribute to improving detection through custom correlation rules and SOC process improvements.
