Work Experience

Information Security Analyst

Augur CyberX Pvt.Ltd

Jan 2026 - Present

Independently monitored and triaged real-time security alerts across enterprise environments using IBM QRadar SIEM in a 24×7 SOC, driving faster threat detection and reduced response time. Took full ownership of incident lifecycle — detection, analysis, escalation, containment, and closure — across complex threats including DDoS, malware infections, brute force, and unauthorized access. Conducted proactive threat hunting using advanced SIEM queries and IOC-based searches, mapping adversary behaviors to MITRE ATT&CK TTPs — moving beyond reactive alerting to active defense. Performed deep malware analysis — tracing infection chains, examining suspicious file behavior, and correlating network activity — to drive rapid containment decisions. Led end-to-end phishing investigations through Mimecast Email Security Gateway, dissecting headers, URLs, and attachments to neutralize email-based attack campaigns. Correlated events across Firewalls, IDS/IPS, Proxy, DNS, and Endpoints to uncover attack patterns, lateral movement, and multi-stage intrusions invisible to single-source analysis. Enriched and validated IOCs using IBM X-Force, Cisco Talos, VirusTotal, and WHOIS — providing accurate threat attribution and intelligence-driven response. Drove SIEM rule tuning and use case development, significantly cutting false positives and sharpening detection precision across the environment. Collaborated directly with CSIRT and infrastructure teams on threat containment and post-incident remediation, ensuring minimal business impact. Delivered actionable security reports and dashboards to leadership, translating complex threat data into clear risk insights and mitigation strategies.
