What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers technical growth and the opportunity to contribute to a dynamic security team.

I am a dedicated Cyber Security professional with over three and a half years of experience in the Cyber Security domain. My journey began as a Tier 1 SOC Analyst at Tata Consultancy Services, where I honed my skills in monitoring, detecting, and responding to security incidents. I take pride in my ability to analyze alerts using SIEM and EDR tools, and I have successfully implemented proactive measures to defend our network against breaches.

Currently, as a Tier 2 Analyst, I am responsible for overseeing organizational-level security operations. My expertise includes threat hunting, malware analysis, and providing recommendations to minimize alert fatigue. I have effectively reduced non-security alerts by 10-15% through root cause analysis and fine-tuning detection rules. My commitment to continuous learning and improvement has earned me recognition, including the 'Star of the Month' award in April 2024 for my contributions to threat intelligence and incident response.
