What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in cybersecurity, focusing on threat detection and AI applications.

I am a proactive IT Security Analyst with extensive experience in incident response, threat detection, and SOC operations. My proficiency in interpreting alerts from advanced security systems, such as SIEM and IDS/IPS, allows me to identify anomalies and mitigate threats effectively. I have a strong background in applying the MITRE ATT&CK framework for threat analysis and developing countermeasures that enhance organizational resilience.

Throughout my career, I have managed security incidents in a 24/7 SOC environment, utilizing tools like BMC and The Hive to ensure timely resolutions. My role at Trovent Security involved developing detection rules aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK framework, validating these rules, and creating machine learning models for various applications, including anomaly detection and sentiment analysis. I am committed to continuous learning and improvement, as evidenced by my ongoing Microsoft certification and various cybersecurity courses.
