What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on SOC role focused on detection, incident response, and improving telemetry-driven monitoring within a compliance-aware team; opportunities to work with Sentinel/Defender and cloud security are ideal.

I am a hands-on cybersecurity analyst with practical SOC experience in security monitoring, alert triage, log analysis, and incident investigation across network, endpoint, and cloud-like environments.

I have deployed and operated a Wazuh-based SIEM/XDR lab, correlated telemetry from IDS and endpoints, performed root-cause analysis, and mapped attacker behavior to MITRE ATT&CK to improve detection coverage.

I align work to NIST-based frameworks, maintain structured incident documentation for compliance, and am actively building capabilities with Microsoft Sentinel, Defender, and cloud SOC operations.
