What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters growth in cybersecurity, emphasizes collaboration, and allows me to utilize my analytical skills to combat cyber threats.

As a Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) researcher, I specialize in analyzing and interpreting threat intelligence data to uncover patterns and trends in the activities of threat actors across various sectors. My expertise encompasses HUMINT, OSINT methodologies, and monitoring dark-web activities, which empowers organizations to proactively defend against cyber threats.

Throughout my career, I have achieved significant milestones, including being awarded the Best Forensic Research Article for my work on clipboard content and password recovery. My contributions at Fortinet and CloudSEK have not only enhanced client trust but also facilitated new customer onboardings through impactful HUMINT reports. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in threat actor profiling, incident response, and advanced open-source intelligence to deliver actionable insights.
