About Me

I'm a cybersecurity professional with an MSc in Cybersecurity from Teesside University (Merit) and hands-on experience across security operations, SIEM monitoring, vulnerability assessment, and incident response.

My background spans practical lab work at Teesside University where I operated virtualised SOC environments, performed VAPT using industry-standard tools, and produced structured threat intelligence reports mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and the Cyber Kill Chain.

I'm passionate about the frontline of cybersecurity — the alert triage, log analysis, and threat hunting that keeps organisations safe. I'm seeking a SOC Analyst L1 role where I can grow quickly and contribute meaningfully to a security team from day one.

Key Projects

// PROJECT 01
SSH Brute Force Detection — SIEM Pipeline
ELK Stack · Linux · Python · Bash
End-to-end SIEM ingestion and alerting pipeline built on Linux to detect SSH brute force attacks in real time, simulating production SOC monitoring workflows.
  • Elasticsearch + Logstash + Kibana + Filebeat pipeline on Linux for SSH log ingestion
  • Threshold-based detection rules: 10+ failed logins per 5 minutes per source IP
  • Python & Bash scripts for log parsing, GeoIP enrichment, frequency analysis
  • Kibana dashboards for real-time L1 analyst alert triage and visualisation
  • Full SOC-standard runbooks with detection logic and escalation procedures
ELK StackPythonBashLinuxSIEM
// PROJECT 02
Cyber Threat Simulation & Detection Lab
Teesside University · Kali Linux · Wireshark · Nessus · MITRE ATT&CK
Full attack simulation and investigation lab covering phishing, MitM, malware injection, and DDoS scenarios with structured SOC-style triage and documentation.
  • Simulated phishing (email), MitM (network), malware (endpoint), DDoS (volumetric)
  • Wireshark packet-level analysis: C2 comms, anomalous TCP/IP, SSL inspection
  • VAPT using Nessus, OpenVAS, Nmap NSE, Metasploit across simulated targets
  • MITRE ATT&CK TTPs mapping for every confirmed attack scenario
  • Threat intelligence reports with CVE mapping, severity ratings, countermeasures

// PROJECT 03
Phishing & Malicious URL Detection System
Python · OOP · WHOIS · Heuristic Analysis
Automated Python tool for classifying malicious URLs and phishing domains at enterprise scale using heuristic analysis and threat intelligence lookups.
  • OOP Python tool: WHOIS lookups, redirect chain inspection, domain age analysis
  • Heuristic pattern matching: typosquatting, homograph attacks, suspicious TLDs
  • Bash-driven Linux automation pipeline — thousands of URLs processed daily
  • Structured threat classification reports output for security analyst review
