LUIS ERNESTO PERAFAN CHACON
@luispch
Security engineer specializing in SIEM/SOAR, incident response, and cloud security operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a Security Engineer with 4+ years in security operations across enterprise cloud and on-premises environments, experienced in SIEM (Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel), SOAR automation, incident response, threat hunting, and vulnerability management. I hold Azure Security Engineer (AZ-500) and ISO 27001 Internal Auditor certifications and have driven measurable improvements in detection, response times, and vulnerability remediation.
At Emcali and Michael Page I developed detections aligned to MITRE ATT&CK, created SOAR playbooks using Azure Logic Apps, conducted hypothesis-driven threat hunting, and led incident response that reduced resolution time and diminished false positives. I combine technical rigor, cross-functional collaboration, and systems thinking to harden infrastructure and operationalize security at scale.
