I’m a cybersecurity professional working across Threat Hunting, Detection Engineering, and Security Research, having a solid background in Networking, Operating Systems and Enterprise Infrastructure.

My work focuses on analyzing security telemetry, developing and tuning detections, proactively hunting for threats, and investigating attacker behavior. The area that attracts me is finding the connection between offense and defense, finding out how systems are being abused and utilizing this knowledge to gain more visibility, detections and responses.

Apart from practical cybersecurity activities, I have been engaged in driving security initiatives, improving operational processes, and building capabilities across security teams.

My background in designing, implementing, hardening, and maintaining enterprise services provides me a broad technical perspective across Windows, Linux, identity, virtualization, networking, and enterprise infrastructure.

Besides the technical work, I have 5,000+ hours of teaching experience in areas such as Networking, Systems Administration, Digital Forensics, Incident Response and Offensive Security.

I find the intersection of infrastructure, attacker tradecraft, and detection particularly fascinating.
