Cybersecurity professional specializing in insider threat detection and risk mitigation.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated cybersecurity professional with a strong focus on insider threat detection, risk mitigation, and advanced threat analysis. My experience includes supporting security operations and fusion center initiatives through automation and machine learning integrations, enhancing threat response capabilities. At Citibank, I developed and maintained insider threat detection rules using Splunk, enabling real-time monitoring of anomalous behavior and significantly reducing internal risk exposure.
Previously, as a Cyber Security Architect at Akamai Technologies, I led threat detection and mitigation techniques against advanced network attacks. I designed and implemented security infrastructure that protected data and systems from various threats while translating compliance and security risks into actionable remediation plans. My proactive approach to incident management and my ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders have been key to my success in ensuring robust security measures.
In addition to my professional experience, I have developed an insider threat detection application that automates responses to potential security incidents, enhancing organizational security posture. My technical skills, combined with a commitment to continuous learning and adaptation, position me as a valuable asset in the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape.
