What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on SOC role where I can lead incident response, refine detection rules, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow in threat analysis and security engineering.

I am an experienced Cyber Security Analyst with 2.5 years in 24x7 SOC environments, skilled at real-time threat monitoring, phishing investigations, malware analysis, and incident response. I consistently minimize false positives while improving detection accuracy using SIEM and EDR tools.

I have monitored and investigated security events using Splunk ES, IBM QRadar, and Microsoft Sentinel, and maintained SIEM platforms for log correlation and incident response across multiple environments. I produce incident reports, root-cause analyses, and clear briefings for SOC leads and management to improve situational awareness.

I collaborate with stakeholders to refine alert rules, distribute threat advisories, block malicious domains via proxy and DNS filtering, and ensure seamless SOC shift handovers using tools like ServiceNow. I hold a Bachelor of Computer Application and certifications including Cisco's Introduction to Cyber Security.
