What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a cybersecurity role where I can support Security Operations and Governance Risk and Compliance—performing audits, strengthening controls, and responding to incidents. I want a team that values continuous learning, collaboration, strong documentation, and measurable regulatory-ready outcomes.

I’m a result-driven cybersecurity professional with nearly 3 years of experience across Security Operations and Governance, Risk and Compliance management. I’m passionate about information security and cybersecurity, and I bring strong analytical skills to support regulatory readiness and organizational security objectives through continuous learning and collaboration.

In my current role as a Senior Executive at B D G & Co LLP, I perform external audits for 8+ BFSI clients, focusing on the effectiveness testing of information security controls aligned with regulatory and industry frameworks. I develop evidence requirements in line with ISO 27001, Data Centre Audit, ITGC, IRDAI Cyber Security Compliance Certificate, and ISNP—identifying control gaps, assessing risk impact, and recommending remediation actions. I also track remediation efforts to closure and produce detailed audit reports that clearly communicate findings to stakeholders and senior management.

Previously, as a Security Analyst - SOC at Eventus Security, I monitored and analyzed real-time security alerts using Splunk SIEM as an L1 SOC Analyst, supporting incident response activities. I assisted in vulnerability assessments using Nessus and OWASP ZAP, provided technical support during cyber incidents, and helped draft RCA reports. I also continuously scanned for Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) using centralized EDR tools and contributed to periodic SOC reporting with incident trends and key metrics for stakeholders.

I reinforce my work with certifications including ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Lead Auditor, Certified SOC Analyst (EC-Council), and Certified Ethical Hacker (EC-Council). I’m recognized for managing multiple BFSI audit engagements end-to-end and for exceptional technical support and day-to-day security operations for a VIP client—always prioritizing documentation, analysis, and measurable client outcomes.
