Cybersecurity & Cloud Engineer

I build practical, affordable security systems in the cloud. My recent work: an AI‑Augmented SOC (AISOC) on AWS with ELK telemetry, a reverse‑shell simulation, and ML‑driven triage.

AWS ELK ML

AI‑Augmented SOC (AISOC)

Lab‑scale SOC on AWS. Three EC2s (Attacker/Defender/Monitoring), reverse‑shell simulation with Metasploit, Filebeat → Elasticsearch/Kibana. ML models (TF‑IDF + Logistic Regression, Random Forest) with calibrated fusion for triage.

  • Macro‑F1 up to 1.00 in controlled tests
  • Defensive playbooks & dashboards in Kibana
  • Cost‑conscious free‑tier friendly design
Docker K8s Terraform Ansible

Cloud DevSecOps Playground

Containerized microservice with IaC & automation: build with Docker, deploy to a managed K8s cluster via Terraform, configure with Ansible, secure with basic policies & image scanning.

  • Ingress + TLS, secrets management
  • CI basics with GitHub Actions
Forensics TSK

Digital Forensics Labs

Investigations on NTFS, ext2 and FAT images using Sleuth Kit (fls, istat, blkcat), timeline building, and report writing.

  • Evidence acquisition & chain‑of‑custody
  • Repeatable lab methodology
IDS Snort

Snort on Apple Silicon

Local IDS rules and alerting on a Mac M1. Custom rules, traffic capture, and tuning for noise reduction.

  • Rule writing & testing workflow
  • Kibana dashboards for visibility

About

I enjoy building security systems that are explainable and cost‑aware. My thesis project proves that simple, calibrated models can help a small SOC punch above its weight. I like hands‑on demos, clean dashboards, and short feedback loops.
