My work in cybersecurity.

I connect application assessment with service protection, vulnerability management and event analysis. Automation and documentation support that work.

The work, in practice.

Web and API assessment

I examine requests, inputs and access controls. I document findings, their conditions and recommendations for addressing them.

HTTP testing · Finding validation · Technical reporting

Security controls and services

I contribute to configuring and validating WAFs, proxies and agents. I investigate compatibility, dependency and TLS trust issues.

Rules and exceptions · Linux troubleshooting · Certificates

Events, detections and observability

I review events and detections, troubleshoot agents and ingestion, and work with service metrics. I distinguish data reception from indexing and visualization.

SIEM/XDR · Telemetry · Investigation and documentation

Practice sharpens judgment.

The foundation: software development.

Before working in security, I built applications. That experience brings code, architecture and web-system context to my current work.
