What I'm looking for

I am seeking a dynamic role in cybersecurity where I can grow, learn, and contribute to protecting organizations from cyber threats.

I am a dedicated and aspiring SOC Analyst with a solid foundation in cybersecurity, having completed internships at ITSOLERA PVT LTD and Shadow Defense. My experience includes installing and configuring security tools such as Suricata IDS and Wazuh, as well as conducting malware analysis in isolated environments. I am passionate about leveraging my technical skills to enhance organizational security.

During my internships, I honed my abilities in monitoring and analyzing security events using tools like Splunk and ELK. I applied the MITRE ATT&CK Framework for threat mapping and mitigation, and documented my findings in professional reports that provided actionable insights. My academic background in Computer Science, combined with my hands-on experience, equips me with the knowledge and skills to contribute effectively to a cybersecurity team.
