Thota Srikanth

I am a passionate and dedicated Cybersecurity Analyst with over 3 years of hands-on experience in Security Operations, Threat Intelligence, and Incident Response. Throughout my career, I have developed a strong expertise in monitoring, detecting, and mitigating cyber threats by leveraging advanced SIEM platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk. My deep understanding of frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, and structured analytic techniques enables me to analyze complex threat data and transform it into actionable intelligence for informed decision-making.

My experience spans across performing threat hunting, incident investigations, and vulnerability assessments to protect organizational assets and sensitive information. I am proficient in using OSINT tools like VirusTotal, Shodan, and Maltego for gathering intelligence on threat actors and campaigns. Additionally, I automate SOC workflows and threat detection processes through Python and PowerShell scripting, improving efficiency and response time.

In addition to my technical skills, I bring strong communication and collaboration abilities to effectively work with cross-functional teams, including cloud, application, and DevOps groups. I have contributed to Purple Team exercises, enhancing detection strategies through adversary emulation and gap analysis. My work also involves preparing detailed reports and executive summaries that clearly communicate cyber risks and mitigation strategies to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

I have a solid foundation in cybersecurity standards and compliance frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, GDPR, and Cyber Essentials. This allows me to provide consultancy support in governance, risk management, and compliance initiatives. I am committed to continuous learning and staying updated with the latest threat landscapes and security technologies to deliver proactive protection.

Beyond my professional experience, I am actively involved in cybersecurity communities and contribute to knowledge sharing through blogs and mentoring junior analysts. I am highly motivated by the challenge of staying one step ahead of cyber adversaries and protecting digital environments from evolving threats.

With a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering and certifications in security and risk management, I am well-prepared to take on complex cybersecurity challenges in dynamic environments. I am eager to leverage my skills and experience in a role that values innovation, teamwork, and continuous improvement to strengthen organizational security posture.
