What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a full-time, entry-level cybersecurity role where I can apply threat detection, network security, log analysis, and vulnerability remediation skills, deliver secure solutions, and grow as a security professional.

I'm a Computer Science graduate in Cybersecurity from Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus, with a 3.82 CGPA and a focus on threat detection, network defense, and secure system design.

During my industrial training at Sarawak Information Systems Sdn. Bhd. (SAINS), I researched and configured NAT and Bridged networking modes for virtual machines and studied OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities in workplace security contexts.

I developed and hosted a CRUD application with security measures against OWASP vulnerabilities, and automated vulnerability reporting with Python by parsing JSON outputs into structured reports for the team.

I've also investigated Nginx logs, used Linux process commands to identify anomalies, configured the ELK stack on Docker, and explored AI integration with Elasticsearch to strengthen anomaly detection and security operations.
