What I'm looking for

I'm looking to deepen my DFIR and incident response work through investigations, threat hunting, forensic analysis, and opportunities to improve detection and containment capabilities.

At EG-CERT, I investigate public-sector incidents through forensic triage, host, network, and web log analysis, IOC extraction, scope assessment, containment guidance, and technical reporting. I reconstruct attacker activity, map behavior to TTPs, and produce actionable IOCs for threat hunting and detection improvement.

Previously, I performed Tier 1 SIEM alert triage at Summit Technology Solutions, enriching alerts with threat intelligence and escalating validated incidents for deeper investigation. My DFIR background includes Windows artifacts, SIEM/EDR investigations, incident reporting, Splunk, QRadar, ELK, Volatility, KAPE, and Python.
