I tune detection rules in Splunk ES, Microsoft Sentinel, and IBM QRadar, and map incidents to MITRE ATT&CK to help reconstruct attack timelines.

I install and maintain enterprise firewalls, including Cisco ASA, FortiGate, and Check Point, and manage security policies, NAT, and VPNs.

Previously, at Girnar Group, I secured and maintained network infrastructure in production trading environments. I configured and troubleshot network services and Palo Alto firewalls, and investigated incidents using Wireshark, Ping, and Traceroute.
