What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level SOC role where I can focus on SIEM monitoring, threat detection, and incident response, document findings clearly, and grow through continuous learning and practical lab-based training.

I’m a junior SOC Analyst and cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience from cybersecurity simulations, technical labs, training environments, and IT support activities. I’m skilled in SIEM monitoring, log analysis, threat detection, incident response, phishing investigation, vulnerability management, and security awareness. I hold CompTIA Security+ and ISC² Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) certifications.

In enterprise cybersecurity simulations, I investigated ransomware activity, identified indicators of compromise (IOCs), analyzed attack vectors, and produced detailed incident reports. I also supported Identity and Access Management (IAM) assessments and strategy alignment, developed IAM solution recommendations, and contributed to vulnerability prioritization and remediation guidance using structured risk analysis.

Through TryHackMe SOC Level 1 and related labs, I performed alert triage, SIEM log analysis, incident documentation, and malware triage across Splunk/EDR/SOC simulation environments. I applied MITRE ATT&CK and multiple threat frameworks during phishing and attacker-infrastructure investigations, achieving a 100% True Positive Rate during SOC Simulator phishing investigations.

I bring a disciplined, documentation-first approach to SOC workflows and continuous improvement, and I’m passionate about cyber defence, threat analysis, incident response, and growing my skills through practical training and professional development.
