What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for growth in cybersecurity, with a focus on incident response and threat mitigation.

I am a dedicated Cybersecurity Analyst with over two years of experience in Security Operations Center (SOC) environments, primarily at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). My expertise lies in monitoring and analyzing security alerts using advanced SIEM platforms like Microsoft Sentinel and IBM QRadar. I have hands-on experience in incident response, leveraging the NIST Incident Response Framework to effectively manage and mitigate security incidents. My proactive approach to threat detection and incident handling has allowed me to successfully isolate threats and implement robust security controls.

During my tenure at TCS, I honed my skills in investigating security incidents by analyzing logs and telemetry data to uncover potential threats such as brute-force attacks and data exfiltration attempts. I am well-versed in using Kusto Query Language (KQL) for advanced querying and pattern recognition, which has significantly enhanced my ability to detect unauthorized access and suspicious user behavior. My recent internship with IBM SkillsBuild further solidified my incident response capabilities, where I simulated network breaches and developed comprehensive mitigation strategies.
