What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow as a SOC analyst, owning SIEM-driven alert triage, threat hunting, and incident reporting while automating detections and improving false-positive reduction.

I’m a SOC Analyst (L1) with hands-on experience in SIEM-based alert triage, incident response, and threat detection across Windows and Linux environments. In VAPT internships, I identified 25+ vulnerabilities (SQLi, XSS, CSRF), mapped findings to MITRE ATT&CK, enriched IOCs, and performed deep log analysis.

I investigate threats end-to-end—brute-force, C2 beacon, and DNS tunnelling—producing formal incident reports with escalation recommendations. I also build SOC automation using Python, Bash, and PowerShell (cutting manual triage time by 20%) and deploy home-lab Splunk threat-hunting and malware/C2 detection workflows.
