Cybersecurity Consultant at Positka who shaped a detection-use-case framework now used by 10 detection engineers.

India
Message

At Positka, I progressed from SOC operations into governance, presales, and client-facing technical consulting. I advise clients on compliance requirements, RFP solution scoping, and SOC onboarding.

I lead detection use-case strategy across client environments, from assessment and gap analysis to creation and tuning. I map this work to MITRE ATT&CK and architect detection logic across Splunk Enterprise Security and CrowdStrike NGSIEM.

I built a structured detection use-case lifecycle and gap-analysis process that became the standard framework used by a team of 10 detection engineers. I also serve as a consulting subject-matter expert for an internal MITRE ATT&CK-based detection engineering platform.

My work has included leading SOC onboarding engagements, supporting CrowdStrike Falcon EDR implementations, and serving as Lead Internal Auditor for Positka's ISO 27001 internal audit. I’ve also advised customers on EU RED cybersecurity requirements during product testing engagements.
