I’m a SOC Analyst specializing in security monitoring, log analysis, and threat investigations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a SOC Analyst with nearly 2 years of experience in Security Operations, supporting multi-client security monitoring and hands-on incident investigations. I focus on log analysis, threat investigations, and applying MITRE ATT&CK to improve investigation quality.
In my current role, I monitor and investigate security alerts using AlienVault USM and DefenceScout, and validate findings with tools like CrowdStrike Falcon, Microsoft Defender XDR, Microsoft Sentinel, SentinelOne, and Microsoft 365 security solutions. I correlate security events across endpoint, identity, network, cloud, and application log sources to reduce false positives and determine incident scope.
I also work across Windows and Linux environments and analyze signals from Microsoft Entra ID, Office 365, SQL Server, firewall/WAF/VPN, Exchange Online, and SharePoint Online. I document and escalate confirmed incidents while supporting governance activities such as Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) and contributing to detection use case improvements.
