What I'm looking for

I’m interested in international cybersecurity opportunities focused on security operations, incident response, DFIR, and threat hunting.

At Ensign InfoSecurity, I investigate and analyse security alerts across client environments, using SIEM and EDR platforms to assess suspicious activity and support incident severity decisions. I document findings and escalate significant or complex incidents.

At CyberSecurity Malaysia’s Cyber999 and MyCERT, I handled Level 2 escalations for high-severity incidents. I investigated logs and artifacts to identify root causes and attack timelines, mapped adversary behaviour to MITRE ATT&CK, and provided containment and remediation recommendations.

I’ve contributed to threat intelligence publications and cyber defense exercises, including representing Malaysia in the Indo-Pacific Cyber Programme Threat Hunting Game 2025. I also achieved a Top 3 placement in the ITU Global Cyber Drill 2025.
