Summary
Shuheb Ahmed is a Cyber Operations Analyst L2 with eight years of IT experience and a background that spans frontline IT support, education, and SOC operations. He retrained into cybersecurity, earning A+, Network+, Security+, and CEH certifications, and has hands-on experience with Microsoft Security Suite (Sentinel, Defender), Metasploit, Nmap, Burp Suite and other offensive and defensive tools.
