Pradeep K

I’m a cybersecurity professional with nearly 3 years of experience, specializing in Malware Analysis and Security Operations Center (SOC) work. I focus on endpoint detection and response (EDR), log analysis, threat hunting, and incident response, with a strong emphasis on reversing malware and extracting actionable Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) to detect and mitigate threats.

At LTI Mindtree as a Security Researcher (March 2022–Till Date), I analyze and respond to security incidents to ensure timely resolution and minimal impact. I’ve conducted static and dynamic malware analysis using IDA Pro, Ollydbg, and x64dbg, monitored endpoints with Microsoft Defender ATP, CrowdStrike Falcon, and SentinelOne, and investigated threats using MITRE ATT&CK to map adversary behavior. I also developed and maintained detection signatures to block Agent Tesla, Emotet, and ransomware campaigns, reducing false positives, and built a software bundler detection script that supports phishing mitigation by accurately flagging potentially unwanted applications.
