@martingeorge
Cybersecurity engineer specializing in penetration testing, SOC monitoring, and red teaming.
What I'm looking for
I’m a cybersecurity engineering student at the University of Dodoma specializing in penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, and SOC operations. I’m Certified Red Team Analyst (CRTA) and Security Analyst Level 1 (SAL1), with hands-on experience across web application security testing, SIEM monitoring, and incident analysis.
As a Security Analyst Intern at e-Government Authority (eGA), I conduct web application vulnerability assessments and manual security testing across government systems. I monitor SIEM dashboards, triage alerts, and escalate incidents, and I collaborate on secure coding practices by analyzing incident response logs and improving detection capabilities. Through practical training at the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, I supported network monitoring, access reviews, MFA enforcement, phishing awareness training, and Windows hardening, plus backup and disaster recovery testing.
I bring offensive security drive and a threat-detection mindset, proven through 1st Place in Cyber Premier League (CPL) Tanzania 2026 and 2nd Place in TCRA Cyber Champions 2025/2026. I build security tools and research—like an autonomous red & blue team simulation environment mapped to 100+ MITRE ATT&CK techniques, phishing simulations and security awareness analytics, and blockchain-based WiFi authentication—while also doing bug bounty research focused on OWASP Top 10 and responsible disclosure.
