CE Certified

The CompTIA CySA+ (Cybersecurity Analyst) certification validates intermediate-level skills in applying behavioral analytics to detect, prevent, and combat cybersecurity threats. It is vendor-neutral and ANSI/ISO-accredited, recognised as fulfilling U.S. DoD 8570.01 requirements.

My preparation for this certification deepened my practical understanding of security monitoring, threat detection, and incident response. I developed hands-on skills in analyzing security events, investigating suspicious activity, applying threat intelligence, and managing vulnerabilities across enterprise environments. This certification strengthened my ability to defend systems and respond effectively to evolving cyber threats.
