About
I am a cybersecurity professional currently working as a SOC Analyst, with hands-on experience in SIEM monitoring, alert triage, and incident response. I enjoy analyzing security alerts, investigating suspicious activity, and using Microsoft security tools to identify and respond to potential threats. I also have a strong background in cybersecurity compliance and audits, having worked with ISO 9001 and ISO 27001, internal audits, risk assessments, and security documentation.
This gives me a good understanding of how security operations and compliance work together in real organizations. I'm naturally curious, detail-oriented, and passionate about continuous learning, with a clear goal of building a long-term career in cybersecurity.
