Summary
Tim Duckworth is a seasoned cyber forensic examiner and threat hunter with over a decade of hands-on experience in incident response, security event correlation, and custom integrations across enterprise SOC environments. Holding CISSP certification and active security clearance, he has designed and deployed forensic labs, IDS/IPS suites, and bespoke tooling to close visibility gaps and automate IOC collection. Tim has led integration projects at Booz Allen and GuidePoint, pioneering solutions like a DNS sinkhole tied into SIEMs and upgrading CRITS with MongoDB and Python to streamline investigations. He excels at translating technical complexities into executive-ready briefings and program recommendations, particularly for insider risk and human-behavior baselining. Based in the Washington DC–Baltimore area, he thrives under pressure and on large-scale, cross-organizational incident responses. A detail that stands out: he combines deep forensic tradecraft with practical scripting (PowerShell, Python) to deliver repeatable, operational SOC improvements.
