I've built hands-on cybersecurity projects focused on network scanning, web application testing, and security monitoring. My work includes a multithreaded Python TCP port scanner with configurable ranges, timeouts, and concurrent scanning.

Through PortSwigger Web Security Academy, I performed web application penetration testing against common OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, including SQL injection, XSS, broken access control, authentication flaws, path traversal, and command injection. I documented risk analysis and mitigation strategies alongside my findings.

I've also implemented a Splunk SOC detection lab, creating SPL detections, dashboards, and alerts to analyze web server logs for scanning activity and anomalous HTTP requests. In Commonwealth Bank’s cybersecurity simulation, I used transaction data and Splunk dashboards to identify fraud indicators and suspicious patterns.

I'm continuing to grow in security operations, network security, and threat analysis through practical labs and virtual experience programs. I bring experience with Python, Bash, Wireshark, Nmap, Splunk, Burp Suite, Windows, and Linux.
