Mastering skills in systems security, network security, vulnerability, andrisk assessments.● Installing and configuring security applications such as personalfirewalls, antivirus programs, and host-based intrusion detectionsystems successfully.● Completing an in-depth Penetration Test as part of a Capstone Project. - For the capstone project, I completed a "structured walkthrough" penetration test of a fictional company, Artemis, Inc. This was an organized procedure for a group of peers to review and discuss the technical aspects of various IT, IT security, and IT audit work products. The major objectives for this structured walkthrough were to find errors and improve the quality of the products/services to be delivered. During the capstone, I lead my team of new pen-testers in a structure walkthrough of the entire test so that everyone on the team knew what to do, the amount of time allowed for the actual test (utilized as efficiently as possible), and the client’s expectations that are to be met or exceeded. To accomplish this, I performed simulated reconnaissance of the client, simulated target identification and scans against the external network, simulated the identification of vulnerabilities, assessed the threats and made recommendations, and created two mock reports for the client: an Executive Summary for the client’s senior management & a detailed Technical Report for the client’s IT staff.● Completing over 35 projects and 50 technical labs that provide real-worldcontext in cybersecurity● Mastering skills in systems security, network security, vulnerability, andrisk assessment.
