Working for the Realtime Security Event Correlation team, my primary focus was on architecting a next-gen SIEM, and content creation for the SIEM after implementing it. During my time on the team I assisted in projects that improved performance, built correlation logic believed impossible by the vendor, and enhanced the SIEM with custom architecture and code to increase its capabilities to serve a large organization.
