@sahilkharel
I am an experienced SOC Team Lead in incident response and threat hunting.
I am a cybersecurity professional with over six years in the field and more than four years focused on Security Operations Center (SOC) processes, currently serving as a SOC Team Lead. I combine technical depth with team leadership to protect organizational assets.
I lead SOC analysts to detect, analyze, and respond to complex security incidents, and I design and implement incident response playbooks that streamline SOC workflows and improve efficiency. I have performed threat hunting and incident response for clients across the United States, Australia, Nepal, Bangladesh, and regions in Europe.
My hands-on technical experience includes SIEM platforms such as ELK and Logpoint, EDR (CrowdStrike), IDS/IPS, firewalls, cloud security on GCP and AWS, Datadog, Tines SOAR, and vulnerability tools like Nessus and Acunetix. I hold industry certifications (Certified SOC Analyst, ISC2 cybersecurity certification, threat intelligence training) and apply standards such as NIST, ISO 27001, GDPR, and SOC-2 in practice.
I am committed to mentoring analysts, continuously improving detection and response capabilities, and maintaining strong client relationships to deliver tailored security solutions. I am open to relocation and remote opportunities and enjoy cybersecurity research and mentoring aspiring professionals.
