Most small IT teams collect logs but never actually investigate them. That's exactly what attackers count on.
Over the past several months, I've been building hands-on SOC skills — analyzing Windows Event Logs, running SIEM investigations in Splunk and Wazuh, and reconstructing full attack timelines across ransomware, brute-force, and phishing scenarios.
Here's what I've learned: logs don't lie. Every failed login attempt, every unauthorized account creation, every suspicious process execution leaves a trace. The challenge is knowing where to look and how to connect the dots.
Some things I can help you identify from your logs: • Brute-force attack patterns and successful compromise indicators • Unauthorized account creation and credential manipulation • Suspicious authentication anomalies and privilege escalation attempts • Attack timelines mapped to MITRE ATT&CK techniques
I deliver structured investigation reports that turn raw log data into clear, actionable findings — so you know exactly what happened and what to do next.
If your team is sitting on unreviewed logs or needs support investigating a security event, I'd love to help.
