I am an aspiring Security Operations Center (SOC) Analyst focused on threat detection, incident investigation, and security monitoring using Microsoft security technologies.
I am building practical, hands-on experience in cybersecurity through real-world SOC labs using Microsoft Sentinel, Defender XDR, and Azure. My focus is on Blue Team operations — detecting attacks, analyzing logs, and investigating security incidents.
I learn best by doing, and I continuously improve my skills by working on practical security projects and studying real-world threat detection techniques.
My goal is to become a professional SOC Analyst capable of detecting, analyzing, and responding to cyber threats in real-world environments.
