I’m Abdullahi Abdinoor Mohamed, a cybersecurity student pursuing a Degree in Information and Cybersecurity. I am currently completing the Google Professional Cybersecurity Certificate and planning to earn CompTIA Security+ and CISSP certifications. I’ve worked on projects like setting up a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) and am eager to take on more challenges. My goal is to become a Security Analyst, where I can leverage my analytical skills, problem-solving abilities, and passion for continuous learning to tackle emerging security threats.
To leverage my growing expertise in cybersecurity, including hands-on experience with network intrusion detection and industry certifications, to contribute as a Security Analyst. I aim to apply my problem-solving skills, analytical thinking, and dedication to continuous learning in tackling emerging security challenges and ensuring the protection of digital assets.
