B.Tech IT Student at Sharda University
SOC Analyst | Cybersecurity Enthusiast | Lifelong Learner
Based in Greater Noida, India
I am a SOC Analyst with hands-on experience in security monitoring, log analysis, and incident investigation. I am passionate about cybersecurity and penetration testing, with a strong focus on understanding systems and securing them effectively.
My learning philosophy is hands-on + theory, because true security knowledge comes from testing, analyzing, and solving problems in real environments. I enjoy breaking complex problems into actionable solutions and continuously expanding my skills in threat detection, monitoring, and security operations.
