About Vinod Gurram

Cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience in threat detection, incident response, and cloud security across AWS and Azure. Skilled in using SIEM, EDR, and penetration testing tools to analyze security events, identify vulnerabilities, and mitigate risks. I take an attacker-minded approach to uncover weaknesses and build stronger defenses. I’ve also applied machine learning techniques for anomaly detection and used Python and Terraform to automate security workflows. As a Graduate Assistant, I designed and delivered hands-on labs in networking and cybersecurity, mentoring students in threat detection and system security. I’m actively seeking opportunities in cybersecurity to contribute to security operations, threat detection, and building secure systems.
