What I'm looking for
I am a SOC/MDR Analyst specializing in detecting, investigating, and responding to threats across EDRs and QRadar. I focus on improving visibility, reducing noise by refining detection logic, and delivering clear, actionable findings while optimizing exclusion processes.
Previously I served as a SOC Analyst at Clalit and led IT support teams, implementing the Principle of Least Privilege and managing Active Directory/Exchange permissions. I hold cybersecurity and ethical hacking certifications from HackerU and practical network/data security training from John Bryce, and I bring strengths in incident response, automation, reporting, and team leadership.
