What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an entry-level SOC or cybersecurity role where I can monitor alerts, investigate incidents, strengthen my threat detection skills, and grow through hands-on security operations work.

I've monitored and analyzed security alerts at Hybrid Security Consult, performing Level 1 triage, classifying incidents, investigating phishing emails, and escalating confirmed findings in structured reports.

I build hands-on detection environments using Wazuh, Splunk, Snort IDS, Sysmon, Windows 10, Kali Linux, and VMware. In my personal SOC lab, I've configured endpoint logging, forwarded logs to Splunk, written Snort detection rules, and simulated attack traffic for analysis.

I'm focused on network security, Windows event analysis, log correlation, IOC identification, and practical threat detection.
