About Me

About me

I'm a dedicated Security Analyst with experience in SOC environments, focusing on incident response, SIEM, and vulnerability management. I specialize in threat detection, network traffic analysis, and blockchain investigations.

I'm proficient in identifying and addressing security threats using tools like Nmap, OWASP ZAP, and Chainalysis. I have knowledge in adversary tactics, incident response processes, and the Mitre ATT&CK framework.

I'm enthusiastic about cybersecurity and skilled at working in fast-paced, 24x7 environments. Currently based in Chabahil, Kathmandu, Nepal, I'm actively pursuing my Bachelor's in Computer Applications while working as a Security Researcher.
