What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, encourages innovation, and values teamwork in cybersecurity.

As a dedicated Cybersecurity Analyst, I possess hands-on experience in developing security plans, incident response procedures, and analyzing cyber threats. My proficiency in various cybersecurity frameworks and tools, including NIST standards, SIEM, and Kali Linux, complements my solid foundation in networking and cryptography. I am committed to leveraging my technical knowledge and management experience to enhance organizational security and resilience.

Throughout my training at Coding Temple, I have conducted extensive research on existing cybersecurity threats and trends, ensuring I stay informed about the latest developments in the field. I have engaged in hands-on training with security tools and technologies, participated in simulations, and developed incident response procedures for hypothetical security breaches. My projects, including creating a comprehensive security plan for a simulated corporate network, demonstrate my ability to apply theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios.
