Work Experience

Cybersecurity Analyst & Developer

Independent Security Researcher

Oct 2023 - Present

Developed a custom Intrusion Detection System (IDS) using Python to monitor network traffic. Automated the parsing of logs to identify brute-force attacks and SQL injections, directly aligning with the need to develop security solutions based on system analysis. Conducted forensic simulations involving memory analysis and file system artifact inspection to identify indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with malware execution. Scoped the extent and impact of vulnerabilities by correlating Nmap scan results with CVE databases. Created a 'Vulnerability Prioritizer' script to rank critical threats, reducing manual triage time by 40%. Utilized Wireshark to analyze core networking protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP, DNS) to detect anomalies and potential data exfiltration attempts. Monitored open-source threat feeds to stay updated on the latest TTPs (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures) used by bad actors, applying this knowledge to harden simulated network architectures.

Senior Analyst - Operations

Fidelity National Financial India

Jun 2020 - Sep 2023

Conducted deep-dive investigations into complex data discrepancies, identifying areas of risk and providing input on remediation strategies. Acted as a primary point of contact for operational incidents, assessing probable damages and collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive issues to closure. Enforced strict adherence to US regulatory standards and internal security policies, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive client data (PII). Analyzed operational workflows to identify inefficiencies, demonstrating the analytical mindset required to assess security systems and improve incident response times.
