I’m a hands-on SOC professional trained in threat detection, SIEM operations, network traffic analysis, and incident response across real-world attack simulations. My focus is simple: defending networks starts with understanding how attackers think and translating that into fast detection and clear investigation.

In my current SOC Analyst Intern role at Red Team HackerAcademy, I’ve built practical skills through labs on TryHackMe, Hack the Box, VulnHub, Blue Team Labs, and EC-Council iLab. I work through alert investigation and log analysis, turning simulated enterprise events into actionable threat-detection outcomes.

I routinely perform packet-level analysis with Wireshark to identify IOCs and analyze protocol behavior across TCP/IP, HTTP, and DNS. I map attack patterns using MITRE ATT&CK and the Cyber Kill Chain to help connect indicators to techniques and tactics, so response decisions are grounded and repeatable.

I also strengthen my SOC workflow with SIEM and tooling experience across Splunk, Wazuh, and the ELK Stack, plus security tools like Nmap, Nessus, Burp Suite, Metasploit, Snort, AlienVault OSSIM, and VirusTotal. Alongside SOC operations, I’m building automation projects—like a Flask-based Threat Intelligence Automation Pipeline and an OWASP Top 10 vulnerability scanner—to scale IOC enrichment, scoring, and reporting with MITRE ATT&CK context.
