Projects4

• WAZUH SIEM HOME LAB — SOC SIMULATION

  Deployed Wazuh SIEM on a virtual machine for centralized log ingestion and security alert monitoring. Triaged and investigated alerts by correlating events across multiple log sources to identify potential threat patterns. Practiced the incident response workflow: identification, containment, analysis, and documentation.

• TRINETRAINTEL — CYBER INTELLIGENCE & FORENSIC ANALYSIS PLATFORM

  Developed a unified platform for Threat Intelligence, OSINT, Digital Forensics, and SOC investigation. Performed IP intelligence checks including geolocation, ISP/ASN, VPN/proxy/Tor detection, and risk analysis. Implemented domain intelligence using WHOIS, DNS, subdomain discovery, SPF/DMARC, and security checks. Conducted hash/file, email-header, and image-forensics analysis using metadata, magic bytes, EXIF, and security indicators. Mapped findings to MITRE ATT&CK and OWASP and generated local investigation reports.

• VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT & PENETRATION TESTING LAB

  Assessed a controlled Windows lab environment vulnerable to the EternalBlue (MS17-010) SMB vulnerability. Used Nmap to identify open ports, running services, and SMB exposure on the target system. Analyzed the vulnerability and used Metasploit in a controlled lab to validate it and demonstrate exploitation. Documented security weaknesses and recommended patching, SMB hardening, network segmentation, and disabling unnecessary SMB services.
