Naiya Pandya
@naiyapandya
Senior SOC Analyst & Team Lead improving detections through SIEM engineering and incident response.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven cybersecurity professional with 3.5+ years of hands-on experience in 24x7 SOC operations within an MSSP environment, leading security operations for multiple enterprise clients. I translate MITRE ATT&CK-driven detections into measurable SOC outcomes through strong detection engineering and incident response.
I promote faster, more reliable detection by designing and continuously enhancing detection use cases, building SIEM correlation rules, behavioral analytics, dashboards, and alert logic. I’ve improved detection coverage and reduced false positives through tuning thresholds and correlation across Sumo Logic, ELK, Wazuh, Splunk, and Invinsense XDR.
I also lead end-to-end log onboarding—collection, parsing, normalization, enrichment, and correlation—to support monitoring SLAs and compliance readiness. In parallel, I support ISO 27001 risk-management activities, strengthen security posture through platform hardening, and provide advanced support for a homegrown SIEM platform while developing SOC playbooks and automation workflows.
