About Ankaiah Narravula

Now, working as Engineering Manager to develop SOAR integrations at Microsoft Sentinel. Prior to this, I was working as a Solutions Architect, building Machine Learning models for protecting companies from adversaries. Models detect anomalies or outlier from security events by processing huge volumes of data. Also making interactive visualizations form massive data. I am good at Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, HMM, Clustering, NN, SVM, LOF, K-NN, Association Rules and of course little bit Calculus and Linear Algebra. Deliverables included understanding requirements, architect and implement the best solution for data analytics, storage and intelligence. I dealt with both open source and commercial platforms/technologies. My expertise in big data, traditional analytics, visual analytics and machine learning helps me to architect the best solution. Earlier, I have worked for Banking FRM. Implemented system to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions from all channels ATM, Internet, Branch. We have developed machine learning models along with rules (known frauds) to achieve. It will prevent identity theft, phishing etc. My skills are diversified into research, technology and development. I do research with more focus on machine learning techniques for security and visualization. I do design, architect and deliver proof of concepts for new problems. I use weapons R, Python, Map Reduce, RapidMiner, Splunk, Tableau, Pentaho Worked for setting up SIEM, FRM, CRM, Data, Security Analytics and Intelligence systems for organisations in India, Thailand, Qatar, UAE and Canada. I love to own and solve complex problems. I enjoy programming. I have received M.Tech in IT from University of Hyderabad and B.Tech in CS from JNTU. My research work on Data imputation and DEA accepted and published in journals like expert systems with applications, Journal of information and decision sciences and DMIN-11. Interesting areas includes Security Research, Visual Analytics, Machine Learning, Un-structured data processing, Big Data storage techniques and Big Data Analytics.
