Junior Security Analyst

India

I am a Junior Security Analyst with hands-on experience in SOC monitoring, security event analysis, network security, vulnerability assessment, incident investigation, and security operations through practical labs and projects. I have built and operated a practical SOC monitoring environment using Wazuh SIEM and Sysmon to collect and analyze endpoint security events. My current focus is on AI-driven SOC automation and detection engineering.

Projects

SOC Monitoring & Incident Response Lab

Built and operated a practical SOC monitoring environment using Wazuh SIEM and Sysmon to collect and analyze endpoint security events. Technologies used: Wazuh SIEM, Sysmon, Windows, Ubuntu/Linux, VMware.

Network Security & Vulnerability Assessment Lab

Performed network reconnaissance and service discovery using Nmap. Analyzed network traffic and communication patterns using Wireshark. Conducted vulnerability scanning using Nessus and reviewed findings based on severity and affected services. Technologies used: Nmap, Nessus, Wireshark, Kali Linux, Metasploit.

Web Application Security Lab

Performed web application security testing using Burp Suite. Tested applications against common OWASP Top 10 security vulnerabilities in controlled environments. Technologies used: Burp Suite, OWASP Top 10, Gobuster, Kali Linux.

Experience

Built and operated a practical SOC monitoring environment using Wazuh SIEM and Sysmon to collect and analyze endpoint security events. Monitored security events and investigated suspicious activities using Windows and Linux logs. Performed initial alert triage by examining event details, timestamps, source/destination information, processes and other indicators. Practiced distinguishing potential security incidents from benign/false-positive activity. Investigated endpoint and authentication-related events and documented findings for incident analysis. Mapped security activity to relevant MITRE ATT&CK techniques to understand attacker behavior. Practiced identifying Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) including suspicious IP addresses, domains, files, hashes and processes. Performed basic incident-response activities including identification, analysis, containment concepts, escalation and documentation. Used Sysmon telemetry to investigate process creation, network connections and endpoint activity. Practiced security monitoring workflows applicable to L1 SOC operations.
