Entry-level SOC analyst at ATAIN who investigated suspicious activity and escalated high-risk cases.
What I'm looking for
At ATAIN, I monitored user activity for suspicious behavior and policy violations, then investigated and triaged high-risk cases. I escalated confirmed incidents and documented findings against compliance and trust & safety standards.
As a Penetration Tester Intern at VD Soft Consulting, I conducted automated and manual vulnerability assessments using Burp Suite, Nmap, and Metasploit. I documented vulnerabilities and remediation recommendations.
For my final-year project, I built the PayBindas web-based fraud detection system to analyze transaction patterns and identify suspicious activity in real time. I also completed an independent website penetration-testing project, analyzing DNS records and subdomains with NSLookup and Sublist3r.
