Sayilnen Gerlong
@sayilnengerlong
Cybersecurity graduate specializing in ethical hacking, IT support, and web development.
What I'm looking for
I’m a driven final-year Cybersecurity Science graduate from FUT Minna, graduating with a Second Class Upper (2:1) CGPA of 4.48/5.00. I earned the Certified Cybersecurity Educator Professional (CCEP) from Red Team Leaders and completed a 6-month industrial training at HiiT PLC, blending academic strength with real-world IT exposure.
I build confidence across ethical hacking and security fundamentals—covering Network Security, Risk Management, and InfoSec Basics—while staying grounded in CCNA-style networking concepts. I’ve also developed foundational cloud knowledge (IaaS/PaaS/SaaS) through structured training and practiced with a focus on information security principles.
I’m actively seeking an entry-level or graduate trainee role where technical skill meets professional growth. With a genuine eagerness to learn, adapt, and contribute “from day one,” I bring versatility across cybersecurity, IT support, web development, and Python automation & scripting to help teams move faster and safer.
