I investigate security activity and troubleshoot IT systems across networking, Microsoft 365, and hardware environments.
What I'm looking for
I've investigated simulated authentication and web-request logs through SOC, Deloitte, and Mastercard cybersecurity projects, using SQL and log evidence to identify suspicious activity.
I analyzed failed logins, suspicious IP activity, repeated authentication failures, and API behavior, documenting findings and next steps to assess whether activity was legitimate or unauthorized.
During my technical internship in Cyprus, I supported testing, maintenance, troubleshooting, hardware, and system configuration tasks. I also built a solar-powered motor with automated solar tracking using Arduino, a motor driver, and HC-12 wireless communication.
With a BSc in Electronics and Communication Engineering, I'm building on my IT support, networking, cybersecurity, Microsoft Entra ID, and Microsoft 365 foundation to contribute in a technical support or operations environment.
