@katarinaborovina
I am a cybersecurity engineer specializing in vehicle security, SOC operations, and penetration testing.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven cybersecurity specialist with a Master of Science in Information Assurance and Cybersecurity. I currently work as a Cybersecurity Sales Engineer in Belgrade, driving product adoption and delivering tailored security solutions to clients.
Previously, I served as a Vehicle Cybersecurity Engineer at Hyundai-Kia America Technical Center, where I led Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment (TARA) activities, defined security requirements, developed security plans, and executed penetration testing for Digital Keys and vehicle features.
I have hands-on SOC experience as an analyst and team lead at Novacoast, managing event monitoring, incident response, mentoring analysts, and coordinating escalations to maximize detection and remediation. During my graduate research I led projects on facial recognition security, developed biometric authentication systems, and published findings on vulnerabilities.
I combine practical tool expertise (Splunk, QRadar, LogRhythm, AlienVault, Carbon Black, Wireshark, VehicleSpy, Python, Azure) with sales and client-facing skills to translate technical risk into business value. I bring cross-functional collaboration, process development, and a focus on secure product delivery to help organizations improve resilience.
