About Me

I am a Cybersecurity Analyst with 12+ years in IT and a business degree, with hands-on experience in security operations, detection engineering, and GRC.

My enterprise IT background spans system administration at Primuson Pvt. Ltd., IT specialist work at State Bank of India, network support engineering at Green IT Solutions, and IT consulting for Unilever. This gives me a deep operational foundation for understanding how attackers move through real infrastructure.

I built a personal SOC lab using Wazuh, Suricata, and Sysmon for host visibility, network telemetry, log collection, and real-time detection practice — while earning Cisco certifications in Ethical Hacking and Endpoint Security, and IBM credentials in Cybersecurity Fundamentals and Python for Data Science.

What I bring: A business-minded perspective combined with deep hands-on IT operations experience, now applied to threat detection, governance, risk & compliance, and identity & access management.

    Impact: Cut setup time by about 70% with safer defaults.

    Stack: Docker · Compose · GitHub Actions · Linux

    Cloud Migration & Governance Suite

    Problem: Cloud rollouts needed clearer controls and less drift.

    Built: Terraform environments with plan checks and release gates.

    Impact: Improved pre-deploy confidence and repeatability.

    Stack: Terraform · GitHub Actions · Azure · Linux

    Personal SOC Lab

    Problem: Needed hands-on telemetry and alerts.

    Built: Wazuh, Suricata, and Sysmon lab.

    • ✓ Wazuh SIEM — host-based detection & log correlation

    • 🥵 Tor exit node detection — Suricata rules + Tor Project exit list

    🥵 How Tor Onion Routing Works

    Tor wraps traffic in 3 encryption layers. Each node peels one — no single node knows both sender and destination.

    ■ Guard — strips outer layer ■ Middle — strips middle layer ■ Exit — strips inner layer, makes request
