About Tan Nguyen

I am motivated in cybersecurity, especially in security consulting and penetration testing.During my Fall and Spring co-op experiences, I actively utilized Splunk as both an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) to perform log file analysis and establish alert mechanisms. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in integrating Splunk User Behavior Analytics (UBA) into the system, contributing to the creation of robust Splunk environments dedicated to enhancing the security infrastructure of banking networks.I have experience and understanding with Active Directory theory and attacks, intermediate knowledge with OWASP top 10 web vulnerabilities through my creating local lab environment with VMware and Hyper-V, reading books, and doing CTF challenges.My experience includes providing support to clients and troubleshooting hardware, software, and networking issues. I\'m genuinely passionate about assisting customers in resolving their challenges because it allows me to encounter new and diverse situations daily. This goes hand in hand with my main IT goal: making sure others can do their work.
