Cybersecurity Analyst focused on improving security outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I am a Cybersecurity Analyst with over two years of experience in a Security Operations Center (SOC) environment. My expertise lies in monitoring and investigating security alerts, responding to incidents, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to enhance detection and response workflows. I have a proven track record of reducing false positives and identifying real threats, which has significantly supported continuous improvements to an organization’s security posture.
In my current role at Redynox, I conduct weekly security operations to investigate phishing and SOC alerts, analyzing network traffic with tools like Wireshark. My contributions to security audits have consistently yielded positive results, and I have developed real-time Splunk dashboards that have reduced incident response times by 60%. Previously, at Capita Ltd, I assisted in monitoring and analyzing security alerts, contributing to the detection of over 400 security events monthly, and provided phishing awareness training that resulted in a 63% increase in employee reporting.
