What I'm looking for

I seek a security-focused team role where I can perform SIEM/EDR-driven detection and incident response, grow technical expertise, and advance toward L2 responsibilities.

I am a dedicated SOC Analyst (L1) with hands-on experience monitoring, triaging, and responding to security incidents for enterprise clients.

At IP Protocol INC I monitor alerts in ArcSight, execute incident response playbooks, triage and escalate incidents, and collaborate with L2 analysts to deliver context-rich investigations for clients including Bank FAB Misr. I also generate weekly and monthly metrics to support KPI tracking.

I hold a BSc in Computer Science (dual-degree program) and completed internships and training in phishing handling, malware analysis, network attack mitigation, and CCNA fundamentals. I am pursuing OSDA, have completed study phase of eCIR, and use Python, PowerShell, and Bash to automate and accelerate investigations.
