Participate in internal and client‑facing Blue Team projects under mentorship. 8. Stay updated on emerging threats, attack techniques, and new security technologies. 9. Document findings, prepare incident reports, and contribute to knowledge‑base articles. 10. Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to improve overall security posture. Tech stack exposure includes SIEM platforms (Splunk, QRadar), EDR/XDR tools (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne), SOAR (Cortex XSOAR), scripting languages (Python, Bash), and cloud security services (AWS GuardDuty, Azure Sentinel).
