Favour Raymond
@favourraymond
SOC Analyst and cybersecurity practitioner specializing in threat detection, incident response, and SIEM engineering.
What I'm looking for
I’m a SOC-focused Cybersecurity Analyst with hands-on experience in threat detection, incident response, SIEM engineering, and both Blue Team and Red Team operations. I’m Cisco-certified across multiple networking and cybersecurity domains, and I hold CompTIA CySA+.
I build and operate enterprise-grade SOC home labs running Wazuh, Suricata IDS, and Active Directory simulations. My work includes FIM, rootkit detection (Diamorphine LKM), alert triage, threat hunting, and incident response escalation workflows—backed by practical tuning to reduce false positives.
I also enjoy building security tooling end-to-end, from cloud infrastructure on AWS (EC2, VPC, security groups) to full-stack security platforms like a Python IOC ingestion pipeline and a Node.js RESTful TI dashboard with MITRE ATT&CK mappings. My projects include OSINT phishing investigations, password cracking labs with custom wordlists and rules, and cloud-based e-commerce deployment secured with least-privilege access.
