// WHY HIRE ME
Built for a SOC, Not Just Trained for One

Fresher who thinks like a practitioner

Most graduates have studied security. I've operated in it — triaging real alerts, building live detection systems, and working inside actual enterprise environments in Dubai. I'm not looking for a role to learn the basics. I'm ready to contribute from week one.

Graduating

I specialize in SOC Tier 1/2 operations — monitoring alerts, analyzing logs, triaging incidents, and turning raw security events into actionable intelligence using Splunk, Wazuh, and ELK Stack. My pipeline from Winlogbeat → Logstash → Elasticsearch is something I built and deployed myself, not just read about.

My networking foundation (TCP/IP, firewalls, IDS/IPS, deep packet analysis with Wireshark) means I understand attacks at the protocol level. I've correlated real events against MITRE ATT&CK TTPs in production, not in a lab exercise.

I graduate in 2026 with a B.Tech in Cybersecurity from Crescent Institute, Chennai, and I'm actively targeting SOC Analyst, Cybersecurity Analyst, or entry-level security roles in Dubai or remote.

What makes me different from other freshers:

Real international exposure — both internships were in Dubai with actual enterprise environments, not just college lab setups.

Project depth — my AD monitoring system uses ML anomaly detection and LLM-assisted triage, not just dashboards. My honeypot captured and classified 500+ real-world attack sessions across brute-force, injection, and bot patterns.

EC-Council certified — CSA (Certified SOC Analyst), alongside my Red Team Hacker Academy SOC certification. I take credentials seriously because employers do.

// EXPERIENCE
Where I've Worked
JUN 2025 – JUL 2025
Cybersecurity & Data Analyst Intern
ICS Network Solutions (Lycée Français International) — Dubai, UAE
  • Monitored and triaged 50+ security alerts daily using SIEM tools, analyzing Windows Event logs and network traffic to detect suspicious activities
  • Conducted vulnerability assessments using Nmap and Burp Suite; correlated events against MITRE ATT&CK TTPs and generated weekly threat reports
  • Assisted in incident response procedures and documented findings for security team review
JUN 2024 – JUL 2024
IT Security Support Intern
Sparkle Solutionz — Dubai, UAE
  • Enforced security baselines across 200+ devices via Apple School Manager and Lightspeed MDM, ensuring compliance with organizational access control policies
  • Configured MDM enrollment profiles and access controls, restricting unauthorized app installations and enforcing network access policies
// PROJECTS
What I've Built
Active Directory Security Monitoring System with ML Anomaly Detection
Built a real-time enterprise log pipeline (Winlogbeat → Logstash → Elasticsearch) to ingest and parse critical Windows Security Event IDs (4624, 4625, 4672, 4768) from a simulated AD environment. Integrated an ML-based anomaly detection model to identify lateral movement, privilege escalation, and brute-force patterns. An LLM-assisted triage component generates human-readable incident summaries, reducing mean investigation time.
Windows Server Active Directory Winlogbeat Logstash Elasticsearch Python ML / LLM
Web-Based Honeypot System for Detecting & Analyzing Cyber-Attacks
Engineered a production-grade honeypot that captured 500+ malicious HTTP requests, collecting attacker metadata (IP, headers, user-agent, payloads) and classifying threats by severity across brute-force, bot, and injection categories. Implemented deception techniques using fake pages and hidden endpoints. Features automated IP blocking and real-time admin dashboard with live threat alerts.
