Curiosity • Clarity • Control

Hey there! I am Shino Shamit a Cybersec Grad, who likes to break things, ethically ;) and then write the report that explains exactly what happened.

  • Turn messy alerts and weird traffic into clear, evidence-based timelines
  • Build detections, tune signal quality, and map behavior to MITRE ATT&CK
  • Document findings so incidents lead to stronger defenses — not repeat incidents

What I have done and like doing

A hands-on security lab using Microsoft Azure, and a portfolio of detections + incident investigations with clear write-ups and outcomes.

About

How I think and what I focus on

My focus is on practical cybersecurity work: triage, investigation, threat hunting, and improving detections. I like working with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and OWASP to structure thinking, map behaviors to techniques, and document clear actions for containment and remediation.

I value clean, audit-ready documentation: what happened, how we know, impact, and what we changed to prevent a repeat.

Projects

Home SOC Lab

Built a real-world styled cybersecurity home lab using Microsoft Azure and Microsoft Sentinel to simulate a small Security Operations Centre (SOC) environment. The goal of this project was to gain hands-on experience with log ingestion, threat detection, incident analysis, and security visualisation using cloud-native tools.

VirtualizationAzureMircrosoft Snetinel

Detection Engineering Practice

Drafted detections mapped to ATT&CK, created investigation checklists, and tuned rule logic to reduce false positives.

Web Security Labs

Practiced SQLi, XSS, and access-control issues. Documented findings in a clear, report-like format with mitigations.

Network Analysis Drills

Analyzed packet captures, identified suspicious traffic patterns, and wrote concise summaries of what happened and why.

What I’ve done

Tecknova IT Solutions
July • 2025 — November • 2025
  • Hands-on practice across web security, network analysis, and defensive workflows using real security tools.
  • Produced structured documentation: findings, impact, recommended mitigations, and verification steps.
  • Developed practical understanding of triage, investigation steps, and mapping behavior to ATT&CK techniques.
AR Data – Data Engineer / Data Intern
July • 2024 — July • 2025
  • Developed and maintained cloud-based data storage architectures and SQL databases, optimising data retrieval, scalability, and performance.
  • Implemented automated data-quality checks, logging, and exception handling to ensure accuracy, completeness, and reliability across data pipelines.
  • Ensured strict compliance with data confidentiality and security requirements by integrating access controls, encryption, and secure data-handling practices.
  • Cleaned, validated, and standardised large datasets, resolving inconsistencies, removing duplicates, and preparing structured formats (CSV, JSON, XML) for downstream systems.
  • Collaborated cross-functionally with service teams to translate client requirements into technical data solutions, improving delivery speed, quality, and accuracy.
  • Documented workflows, identified process inefficiencies, and supported continuous improvement through automation and standardisation.
  • Participated in agile ceremonies including stand-ups and sprint reviews, strengthening communication, planning, and delivery practices.
