ABOUT HASSAN J.
I’m a Cybersecurity Analyst with 6 years of hands-on experience protecting enterprise environments, streamlining security operations, and ensuring compliance in fast-paced, high-stakes industries.My passion lies in solving complex problems — whether it\'s automating a repetitive incident response workflow to save hours of analyst time, identifying the root cause of a stealthy intrusion, or aligning security controls with compliance frameworks like NIST, ISO 27001, or HIPAA.Over the years, I’ve: Reduced incident response times by 40% through SOAR integration and custom alert tuning Automated log correlation and triage for daily alerts Supported successful audits across 5 regulatory frameworks with zero critical findings Detected and neutralized 250+ potential threats annually across cloud and on-prem assetsI bridge the gap between technical rigor and strategic thinking — digging into log files one moment, then mapping risks to business impact the next. I thrive in collaborative environments, love turning chaos into clarity, and believe security should enable, not obstruct, innovation.If you\'re looking for someone who takes initiative, sweats the details, and always asks,\"How can we do this smarter?\" — let’s connect.
