Cybersecurity practitioner focused on GRC assurance and digital forensics, blending risk assessment, incident response, and practical investigations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a cybersecurity practitioner currently pursuing my MSc in Cybersecurity, bringing hands-on experience across Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) and Digital Forensics. I focus on strengthening organizational security posture through structured risk management, control assurance, and audit-ready documentation.
In my role as a GRC Analyst, I support ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS-aligned initiatives—performing risk assessments, identifying security gaps, and contributing to policy creation and review. I also support compliance activities by preparing evidence and audit readiness reports, including data protection and privacy requirements such as asset classification and risk tracking.
Earlier, as an intern at Rajasthan Police Headquarters, Cyber Crime & Cyber Security, I conducted vulnerability assessment and penetration testing, and performed digital forensic investigations from evidence acquisition to analysis. I’ve also built an AI-assisted GRC compliance assessment platform with automated risk scoring and an AI compliance agent that extracts security controls from policy documents, and I bring the same rigor to malware triage, log analysis, and incident investigation support.
