Emmanuel Omuya

I’m a motivated and detail-oriented aspiring Junior SOC Analyst with hands-on experience in security monitoring, phishing analysis, network traffic analysis, and SIEM investigation through practical cybersecurity labs. I’m skilled in Splunk and Wireshark for threat detection, log analysis, and network monitoring, and I use Cyber Kill Chain concepts to connect activity patterns to likely attack stages.

Through practical exercises on TryHackMe, I’ve performed SIEM investigations and event analysis using Splunk, and I’ve practiced SOC workflows such as alert triage, log correlation, and threat identification. I also conducted phishing analysis and email investigation exercises, then analyzed network traffic and suspicious packets with Wireshark to identify protocols, suspicious behavior, and communication patterns.

I’m currently preparing for the CompTIA Security+ certification, with a strong interest in Security Operations Center (SOC) environments and cyber defense. I’m seeking a Junior SOC Analyst or SOC Analyst Intern role where I can apply my SIEM analysis experience and security monitoring knowledge while continuing to grow in defensive security operations and threat analysis.
