About Me

Who I Am

I'm Kashyap Shah — a cybersecurity student pursuing MCA, with a strong focus on SOC Analysis, Threat Detection, and Network Security.

I build hands-on cybersecurity labs and work on real-world scenarios involving log analysis, incident response, and security monitoring. I actively practice using platforms like TryHackMe and focus on understanding how attacks work and how to detect them effectively.

I have developed practical projects including a SOC lab using Wazuh SIEM and worked on authentication security analysis to understand real-world vulnerabilities and defense strategies.

My goal is to become a skilled SOC Analyst and contribute to building secure, resilient systems against modern cyber threats.
