What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me and allows for continuous learning, particularly in threat intelligence and incident response.

I am a dedicated cybersecurity professional specializing in Security Operations, including Threat Intelligence and Hunting, Digital Forensics, Incident Response, Threat Analysis, Threat Detection, and Malware Analysis. My collaborative nature drives me to tackle complex challenges while continuously seeking opportunities for growth and advancement.

Currently, as a Senior Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst at CyberSOC Africa, I have successfully managed major Fintech, Telecom, and Banking institutions, improving threat detection and response efficiency by reducing false positives by 50%. My efforts in automating threat intelligence processes have increased efficiency by another 50%. I have also conducted OSINT focused on threat actor attribution, leading to arrests and disruption of cybercrime, and developed hunting rules that increased early detection and response by 90%.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my contributions, receiving awards such as Top Performer 2022 and Star of the Quarter for both 2023 and 2024 at CyberSOC Africa. I am passionate about enhancing organizational security and am committed to providing real-time threat intelligence to law enforcement during national events, thereby boosting overall security efforts.
