What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to a security team where I can investigate threats, improve detection and response workflows, apply malware analysis and forensics skills, and grow through hands-on work in SOC or security engineering environments.

I've supported SOC operations at CMPAK Limited (Zong 4G) and Ebryx, monitoring enterprise security events, investigating incidents, and analyzing malware across telecom and MSSP environments.

At Zong, I operated LogRhythm for centralized log collection and alert correlation, used SIRP SOAR to orchestrate response workflows, and explored CTM360 for external attack-surface and dark-web visibility. I analyzed network traffic and logs to identify threats, determine root cause, and recommend mitigating controls.

I've also built SPECTRA, Malware Radar, PhishGuard AI, and EFS-Key-Parser—projects spanning fileless malware detection, memory forensics, phishing triage, behavioral malware modeling, and encrypted-data recovery.
