Albertus Meiring's Linkedin Analytics

I’m a SOC Analyst in training with 8 years of hands-on IT experience and a sharp focus on cyber defense. I’ve worked across support, networking, and troubleshooting — giving me a solid foundation to spot threats where others might miss them. Platforms like TryHackMe and LetsDefend have helped me turn theory into practice with real-time detection, alert analysis, and incident response. I’ve completed the TryHackMe “Pre-Security,” “Complete Beginner,” “Intro to Cyber,” and “Pentest+” paths, and I’m deep into LetsDefend’s SOC Analyst track. I’ve also earned my CompTIA A+ and N+, with PSSA and Pentest+ certifications next. I thrive in blue team environments where I can monitor systems, investigate alerts, and keep attackers out. Curious by nature, calm under pressure, and always learning — I bring consistency and drive to every challenge. I’m actively looking for entry-level SOC Analyst roles where I can protect digital infrastructure, learn from experienced teams, and grow into a key player in CyberSecurity.
