WHO AM I

I started as a frontend developer — learned how applications are built, deployed, and scaled. Then I shifted my focus to breaking them.

Now I'm completing my MSc in Cybersecurity & Digital Forensics at UWTSD London, running a full home SOC lab with real attack simulations, writing custom Wazuh detection rules, and building Splunk dashboards that catch real threats.

I've triaged 658 alerts with zero missed. I've implemented SailPoint IAM, designed Zero Trust Architecture, and conducted VAPT assessments in real internship environments — not just labs.

LIVE SOC LAB

Real attack simulations. Custom detection rules. No sandboxing.

01
Wazuh SIEM/XDR Deployment
Self-hosted Wazuh stack with custom detection rules built from scratch. 658 alerts triaged, 0 missed. Full incident response workflow documented.
02
Attack Simulation Lab
Kali Linux attacker VM vs Metasploitable targets. Runs real Metasploit exploits, brute-force, and lateral movement — then detects them in Wazuh.
03
Splunk Threat Dashboards
Custom SPL queries and dashboards mapped to MITRE ATT&CK tactics. Correlation rules catching real suspicious behaviours across log sources.
04
Digital Forensics
Evidence acquisition, memory forensics, chain of custody documentation. Disk imaging and file carving for forensic investigation exercises.
05
Network Monitoring
Wireshark packet captures analysed for C2 traffic, exfiltration patterns and anomalous behaviour. Suricata IDS integrated with SIEM pipeline.
06
CTF Competition Track
Active participation in CTF challenges covering web exploitation, cryptography, OSINT, and binary analysis. Continuous skill-building under pressure.
