What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a challenging role in Cloud Security, Ethical Hacking, or a related field where I can share my expertise and continue expanding my capabilities.

At NTT Global Data Centers & Cloud Infrastructure India Private Limited, I supported security incident response, access management, and alert triage, including escalating events and communicating response status and root cause analysis.

Previously, I monitored AWS security events for a financial institution at Intuitive Technology Partners Pvt. Ltd, where my work contributed to a 50% reduction in potential security risks. I’ve also worked on cloud deployments and incident investigations at Tech Mahindra, and SIEM monitoring and security infrastructure at Compuage’ Infocom Ltd.
