Samee Aziz

I’m a Cybersecurity and Computer Science graduate from Curtin University Dubai with hands-on experience in network security, threat detection, and analysis. I work with SOC toolsets and methodologies, including Wireshark, Nmap, Metasploit, and Snort, and I focus on practical skills like PCAP analysis and IDS configuration.

I hold a CCNA and AWS certifications, strengthening my TCP/IP and networking fundamentals. I’m familiar with SOC operations such as alert monitoring, incident triage, and escalation procedures, and I’m especially interested in SIEM technologies like Splunk for better detection and investigation workflows.

In my projects, I’ve analyzed network traffic to identify indicators of compromise, built and tested Snort IDS rules to simulate SOC alert generation, and applied cryptography concepts like implementing DES from scratch. I’m now seeking an entry-level SOC Analyst Co-Op role where I can contribute immediately and grow in a dynamic security-focused environment.
