What I Do

Incident Manager

As an Incident Manager, I oversee the complete incident response process in organizations. My role involves managing incidents, prioritizing based on severity, coordinating communication among teams and stakeholders, escalating high-severity incidents, and conducting post-incident reviews for continuous improvement. Essentially, my job ensures efficient incident handling to minimize their impact on our operations.

Digital Forensics

As a Digital Forensics Analyst, I investigate cyber incidents by analyzing digital evidence from devices and networks. My tasks include identifying, preserving, extracting, and documenting digital data, using specialized tools to retrieve even manipulated or deleted information. I maintain the integrity of evidence for legal use, collaborate with professionals like law enforcement, and aim to uncover the details of digital security incidents to assist in their prevention.

Cyber Threat Intelligence

As a Security Analyst, I believe that Cyber Threat Intelligence and Research are crucial elements of proactive defense. By gathering and analyzing information about potential threats and threat actors, we can better anticipate, prepare for, and respond to attacks. In my role, I actively engage in this intelligence gathering and research to understand the current threat landscape and bolster our cybersecurity measures accordingly.

Incident Responder

As an Incident Responder, I identify, assess, and mitigate cybersecurity threats in organizations. My key duties involve detecting security incidents, containing the threat by isolating affected systems, and eliminating the root cause. After handling the incident, I help to restore the systems to normal operation and conduct a review to improve future responses.

SOC Analyst

As an SOC Analyst, I monitor and safeguard our customer's cybersecurity. I detect potential threats, respond to security incidents, conduct proactive threat hunting, and maintain security tools and procedures. I also provide regular security status updates to stakeholders.
