ABOUT ME

I’m Anthony, a SOC Analyst with a strong interest in threat detection, incident investigation, and security operations.

I hold the CompTIA CySA+ and Security+ certifications, supported by additional qualifications including Microsoft Security (SC-900), ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity (CC), the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate, and CompTIA ITF+.

Before moving into cybersecurity, I built a career in financial investigations and complaint handling with the Financial Ombudsman Service. That experience developed the analytical thinking, evidence-based decision making, and investigative mindset that now support my work in security operations.

My transition into cybersecurity came from a genuine interest in understanding how systems fail, how threats evolve, and how organisations can strengthen their defences through practical, real-world security measures.

Through this website, I document my learning journey, share technical insights, and reflect on hands-on labs, security investigations, and SOC-related experiences — bridging the gap between theory and practical application.
