About Me

Driven by Curiosity. Focused on Security.

I'm currently pursuing an MSc in CyberSecurity & Data Science at ESAIP in Angers, France. What draws me to security is the investigative side of it: reading logs, following an event back to its source and understanding what actually happened on a system.

Most of what I know I've learned by building. I set up my own SOC labs with Windows and Linux virtual machines, deploy Wazuh to collect and correlate security events, write Python to parse and analyse logs, and experiment with machine learning to spot anomalies and phishing attempts.

I'm interested in Security Operations Centers, IT infrastructure, threat intelligence, analytics and machine learning — and in building practical tools that make security monitoring clearer and incident investigations faster. I'm continuously expanding my skills and looking for opportunities to apply them in a real security team.

Areas of Expertise & Interest

Practical capabilities I've built through labs and projects, and the areas I'm actively developing.

01

SOC Monitoring & Security Log Analysis

Reviewing alert queues and raw logs to separate noise from activity that needs attention.

02

Threat Detection & Security Event Investigation

Writing and tuning detections, then tracing an alert back to the events and host behind it.

03

Wazuh SIEM Setup & Configuration

Installing managers and agents, enrolling endpoints and working with rules and decoders.

04

Log collectors, parsers and small tools that remove repetitive steps from analysis.

05

Machine Learning for Cybersecurity

Anomaly detection and classification models applied to security and transaction data.

06

Phishing Website Detection

Studying phishing indicators and how URL and page features can be used to classify sites.

07

Linux & Windows Lab Configuration

Building isolated multi-VM environments for safe testing and attack simulation.

08

Network Security Analysis

Understanding traffic, scanning behaviour and how network events show up in logs.
