⦁ Conducted vulnerability and risk assessments on the Launch and Test Range System (LTRS) to detect security weaknesses⦁ Semi-agile team team with some waterfall styled work⦁ Adapted the best methods for analysis to comb through large quantities of data quickly and capture the relevant information quickly ⦁ Built Powershell scripts to support software development for the LTRS team. The scripts could parse various types of files then manipulate and/or extract their data⦁ Created bash scripts to test my Powershell scripts and verify the outputs were correct⦁ Oversaw training sessions and tool demonstrations for the team⦁ Joined the company’s capture the flag team to acquire a better hands-on understanding of hacking practices and mindsets
