About Me
SOC Analyst | Splunk | Python | Threat Detection | AWS | MITRE ATT&CK
SOC Analyst with 2 years of hands-on experience in security operations, incident response, and threat detection. Skilled in using Splunk for SIEM monitoring, Python for automation, and Nessus for vulnerability scanning. Familiar with cloud security tools (AWS), MITRE ATT&CK, and NIST response procedures. I’ve worked in fast-paced environments triaging alerts, investigating phishing and malware activity, and developing detection playbooks. Passionate about improving detection efficiency and reducing response times. Open to remote opportunities where I can contribute to a proactive security team and grow into advanced blue team roles.
