Cybersecurity analyst securing enterprise cloud and identity with SIEM/SOAR automation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven cybersecurity analyst with 5+ years securing enterprise environments across cloud, endpoint, identity, and network infrastructures in regulated industries. I strengthen security posture by combining SIEM/SOAR automation, DLP, IAM, vulnerability management, and cloud security using Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, AWS, and Azure—aligned to NIST, ISO 27001, SOX, HIPAA, and SOC 2.
In my roles, I reduce incident response time by 32% through proactive monitoring and alert prioritization, and improve phishing detection and endpoint protection effectiveness by 25% via continuous monitoring and threat intelligence. I also automate audit evidence collection and compliance reporting (reducing preparation time by 40%) while managing user access controls, MFA configurations, and security audits to improve compliance readiness and risk visibility.
