What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a cybersecurity internship where I can apply my network security, threat analysis, and lab-driven testing skills in a professional environment, learn from real-world practices, and help support organizational security objectives.

I’m a cybersecurity enthusiast and aspiring analyst with a background in Banking and Finance, focused on building practical expertise in networking, system security, and ethical hacking. I’m driven by identifying vulnerabilities, understanding attack methodologies, and implementing security controls to protect systems and data.

I’ve strengthened my foundation through self-directed labs covering the OSI model, TCP/IP, DNS, and HTTP/HTTPS, plus network security principles and threat analysis. Using Kali Linux and virtual lab environments (including VMware), I practice simulated attack-and-defense scenarios, run network traffic analysis with Wireshark, scan and assess services with Nmap, and explore topics like the CIA Triad, incident response awareness, phishing simulation, and vulnerability assessment for real-world readiness.
