Hi, I'm Brandon! 🌐

SOC Analyst | CompTia Security+ | Top Secret Clearance

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’» About Me

I am a dedicated professional successfully leveraging over 20 years of experience in high-stakes, process-driven environments (Federal Investigation, TSA, Logistics) into Cybersecurity Operations.

As a former Top Secret Cleared Contractor, my foundation is built on procedural rigor, data confidentiality, and mission-critical execution. My extensive investigative background directly translates to advanced alert triage and anomaly detection, focusing on the correlation of disparate data points to uncover complex security risks. I now focus my technical skills on SIEM operations, Python scripting, and network analysis to contribute immediately to a security team.

My background gives me a distinct advantage in the SOC

  • Investigative Mindset: Proven ability to gather facts, correlate disparate data points, and identify anomalies under strict regulatory frameworks.
  • Procedural Adherence: Expert in following rigorous, defined protocols (critical for Incident Response Playbooks).
  • High Attention to Detail: Trained to spot subtle exceptions in massive data flows (essential for alert triage).

I am actively building a foundational technical skillset focused on SIEM, Linux, and Python to achieve a remote SOC Analyst role.
