@michaelkneale
Aspiring cyber security professional with strong analytical skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and detail-oriented cyber security professional with a strong foundation in both theoretical and practical aspects of the field. My education at Macquarie University has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of major cyber security topics, including web security, data privacy, and penetration testing. I have also gained valuable experience through various freelance roles, where I analyze search results and evaluate AI chatbot responses to enhance user experience and safety.
In addition to my freelance work, I have engaged in significant university projects that demonstrate my ability to apply my knowledge in real-world scenarios. For instance, I contributed to a computing industry project aimed at improving security and workflow for a not-for-profit organization. My analytical skills were further showcased in a data science project where I modeled the characteristics of malaria infection to understand its transmissibility. I am passionate about continuous learning and staying updated with the latest trends in cyber security.
