At Trust Bank Algeria, I conducted cybersecurity risk assessments, developed risk maps, and reviewed Active Directory security. I also developed incident response plans for SWIFT and payment-system environments.

At Huawei, I assessed web-facing assets, discovered exposed infrastructure, and investigated security misconfigurations to support remediation. I used OWASP ZAP, Sublist3r, Nmap, and custom scripts for security testing.

Through GIAC and TryHackMe security labs, I investigated Windows incidents and practiced SOC investigations and threat intelligence analysis. I hold the GFACT, GSEC, and GCIH certifications, and have trained in AI security and AI attack concepts.
