What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an entry-level cybersecurity or SOC role where I can investigate real security events, strengthen detection and incident-response skills, and contribute across SIEM, cloud security, and network defense.

I've built a self-hosted SOC lab using Wazuh, Metasploit, Kali Linux, and VirtualBox to simulate RDP brute-force, credential-dumping, and C2 attacks. I triaged alerts, investigated false positives, created MITRE ATT&CK-mapped incident-response playbooks, and configured Wazuh rules that reduced detection time by 40%.

During my Data Centre Engineering internship at 3Q Sutantra, I supported high-availability network infrastructure and AWS environments, including EC2, VPCs, security groups, network segmentation, firewall hardening, and access controls aligned with ISO 27001. I've also developed AWS cloud-security monitoring, enterprise WAN, and defense-in-depth network projects using GuardDuty, CloudTrail, Security Hub, Snort, Wazuh, routing, VLANs, and ACLs.
