@matthewsgyimahbonsu
Results-driven cybersecurity analyst specializing in SOC, threat hunting, and automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven cybersecurity professional with deep expertise in SOC operations, incident response, and threat hunting across enterprise environments.
I leverage SIEM (Splunk, QRadar, Sentinel), EDR (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Carbon Black), and threat intelligence to detect, investigate, and remediate cyber threats, and I build automation to accelerate response.
My achievements include developing and tuning correlation searches and automation playbooks, leading a phishing triage automation that cut response time by 40%, and closing 500+ incidents annually with zero missed escalations.
I hold a Bachelor's in Biological Engineering, CompTIA Security+, and am pursuing CISM; I collaborate closely with IT and compliance teams to integrate security into systems and ensure regulatory alignment.
