Martha Chinenye U.

Cybersecurity Analyst | SOC | Governance, Risk and Compliance

I bring something most cybersecurity candidates do not; 8 years of hands-on experience operating and monitoring critical infrastructure in power generation environments where a missed alert is not a ticket, it is a crisis. That background is my edge. I understand how operational systems behave under stress, how incidents escalate in real time, and what it truly means to monitor a system where failure has physical consequences. I carry that discipline into every security engagement. If you need someone who understands vulnerability assessments, security operations & monitoring, risk analysis, AI governance and the real-world stakes of security I am ready to deliver. What I bring to a security team: - Hands-on experience with network traffic analysis (Wireshark), Linux system hardening, and Windows event log investigation - Understanding of vulnerability assessment methodology and OWASP Top 10 web application risks - Familiarity with NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act risk classification, and ISO 42001 - A background in high-stakes operational environments where protocol, documentation, and vigilance are non-negotiable.
