About Ritesh Kumar
Microsoft Sentinel SOC Analyst and Cybersecurity Architect with ~3 years of hands-on expertise in building and operating enterprise-grade security operations across Microsoft 365 and Azure cloud environments. As a Microsoft SC-100 Certified Cybersecurity Architect — one of the highest-level certifications Microsoft offers — I specialize in threat detection and response, identity security, and SOC automation. At NewWave Computing, I work directly with enterprise clients to implement Microsoft Sentinel for real-time threat monitoring, KQL-based threat hunting, and automated SOAR playbook responses. I design Conditional Access and Zero Trust policies using Microsoft Entra ID, enforce data protection through DLP and Insider Risk Management, and configure Defender for Endpoint across hybrid environments for EDR and XDR coverage. Beyond security operations, I bring deep expertise in Identity and Access Management — covering SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SCIM provisioning, Privileged Identity Management, and Identity Threat Detection and Response, including automated password reset and MFA enforcement for compromised or risky accounts. I hold 6 Microsoft certifications: SC-100, SC-200, SC-300, AZ-104, MS-700, and PL-400 — covering cybersecurity architecture, security operations, identity administration, and Azure cloud. Open to opportunities in Cloud Security Engineering, SOC Analysis, IAM Engineering, and Cybersecurity Architecture roles across enterprise environments.
