About Tharun Kumar V.

I’m a Security Engineer II at Credit One Bank, working at the intersection of security engineering, analytics, and automation. My focus is building resilient detection and response ecosystems, where every alert leads to actionable insight, and every control is validated through data.I operate across the full security stack, from endpoint to cloud, leveraging platforms like Exabeam SOAR, Cribl, CrowdStrike Falcon, FireMon, Fortinet FortiGate, Palo Alto Networks, Delinea PAM, Netskope, wiz, SentinelOne, Microsoft Defender, and Duo Security to strengthen enterprise defense posture.Day to day, I design and tune automated playbooks, correlate telemetry for threat-hunting and investigation, manage policy and rule optimization, and collaborate with network, identity, and cloud teams to close visibility gaps. I thrive on solving real-world security problems with automation, data-driven decisions, and a deep understanding of attack surfaces.I bridge the mindset of a Security Analyst and a Security Engineer, balancing detection logic with platform reliability, and short-term incident containment with long-term architectural hardening.I’m passionate about advancing continuous threat-exposure management, integrating new-age tools like SOAR, EDR, and CSPM into unified workflows, and helping organizations evolve toward proactive, intelligence-led security operations.
