I bridge the gap between Cloud Infrastructure and Security Operations (SOC). I am passionate about defending cloud environments through proactive hardening, identity governance, and threat detection.

• Threat Detection: Analyzing logs and identifying attack patterns (Brute Force, Lateral Movement).
• Incident Response: Understanding the lifecycle of an incident and containment strategies.
• Vulnerability Management: Identifying misconfigurations and hardening system baselines.
• Identity Security: Specializing in MFA, Conditional Access, and Zero Trust.

• Infrastructure Security: Architecting secure Hub-and-Spoke networks with Azure Bastion.
• Governance: Enforcing Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for Just-In-Time access.
• Data Protection: Managing secrets and encryption via Azure Key Vault and Managed Identities.

• Bastion & NSG Hardening: Secured a private network by eliminating RDP/SSH exposure to the internet.
• Privileged Access Governance: Implemented PIM to mitigate the risk of permanent "Global Admin" roles.
• Cloud SOC Lab: Automated Cloud SOC using Microsoft Sentinel & Logic Apps to detect and block RDP Brute-Force attacks in real-time.

• Current Goal: Mastering Pillar 3 (Key Vault) & moving towards Microsoft Sentinel (SIEM).
