I have a passion for computers and technology, and I am always eager to learn more about Cybersecurity and how to protect data and systems from threats and attacks.I have gained valuable hands-on experience and skills in various software and tools, such as Imperva's DRM and DAM, Palo Alto's Panorama, Qualys, CyberArk, and Microsoft Defender, during my internship at the North Texas Tollway Authority as an IT Security Systems Intern. I worked on many production projects with my coworkers, such as updating firewall policies and transforming findings into more readable formats. also obtained my CompTIA A+ certification, which demonstrates my knowledge and competency in IT concepts and practices.My goal is to work at a substantial-tech company, such as Google or Microsoft, where I can apply my skills and knowledge, and learn from the best in the industry.
