As a seasoned cybersecurity professional with over 4 years of hands-on experience, I specialize in endpoint detection and response, network security, access management, incident response, and threat detection. My expertise extends to addressing complex access control issues in cyber systems and networks, bolstered by a robust foundation in vulnerability assessment tools such as Qualys, Nessus, and Nexpose, and a proficiency in SIEM technologies including Splunk, IBM Qradar, and Azure Sentinel.My technical toolkit is comprehensive, encompassing a wide range of tools and technologies such as Tenable Nessus for vulnerability assessment, Fortinet and Palo Alto for network security, Defender ATP and CrowdStrike for endpoint security, and cloud environments including Azure and AWS. This is complemented by a deep understanding of programming languages like Shell, Java, and PowerShell, and a strong grasp of critical security standards and frameworks like OWASP, PCI DSS, and NIST.In my recent role as a Senior Security Analyst at Canadian Tire Corporation, I've excelled in monitoring security events, implementing incident management processes, and developing incident response SOPs and playbooks based on the NIST framework. My proactive approach to threat detection and mitigation, combined with my skill in training SOC analysts and coordinating with law enforcement, demonstrates my commitment to enhancing organizational security posture.Previously, as a Security Analyst with Cloud Timon India, I played a key role in detecting and responding to security events for global Fortune 500 clients, utilizing tools such as Splunk and FireEye, and ensuring compliance with SLAs. My experience also includes conducting in-depth investigations to identify indicators of compromise and improving incident response activities.I hold certifications in Splunk Fundamentals and EC Council CEH v12, and I earned my Masters in Cybersecurity from the New York Institute of Technology, where I delved into computer forensics and network penetration testing & defense.I am passionate about leveraging my comprehensive knowledge and experience to protect organizations from cyber threats, and I am eager to contribute to innovative cybersecurity solutions that safeguard digital assets and information.
