CISSP | Cybersecurity | OSINT | WordPress Security & Reporting
Need help investigating suspicious activity, conducting an OSINT investigation, securing a WordPress website, or creating cybersecurity content? I bring 15+ years of cybersecurity experience, CISSP certification, and a practical approach to research, troubleshooting, and reporting. I’ve investigated endpoint, identity, and cloud threats using Cortex XSIAM, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, CrowdStrike, and AWS and Azure security logs. My hands-on experience also includes forensic analysis with FTK and Magnet Axiom, vulnerability management, and security automation. I bring that investigative discipline to every project: validate the evidence, explain the findings clearly, and recommend practical next steps. HOW I CAN HELP WordPress Malware Removal & Security Investigate malicious redirects, fake verification popups, injected code, and other signs of compromise. Locate and remove identified malware and backdoors, address security weaknesses, and validate the cleanup. Your remediation report explains findings, changes made, likely root cause where supported, and prevention recommendations. WordPress Maintenance & Support Manage updates, backups, security checks, content changes, and routine troubleshooting. Resolve plugin conflicts, broken forms, layout problems, and performance issues, with backups and testing appropriate to each change. OSINT & Digital Infrastructure Research Research public profiles, businesses, domains, phishing sites, brand impersonation, and video reposts. Deliver organized findings with source links, capture dates, supporting screenshots, and clear distinctions between verified facts and uncertain connections. SOC & Incident Response Support Triage alerts and investigate suspicious endpoint, identity, and cloud activity. Analyze security logs and available artifacts, develop incident timelines, document affected assets, and support authorized containment and recovery. My professional background includes SIEM and endpoint investigations using tools such as Cortex XDR/XSIAM, Microsoft Defender, Splunk, and CrowdStrike. Website & Web Application Security Assessments Perform scoped security reviews using manual testing and supporting scanning tools. Document validated findings, severity, business impact, and practical fixes. Remediation support and retesting can be included within the agreed scope. Cybersecurity Content Writing Create accurate, readable blog articles, website copy, white papers, case studies, LinkedIn content, and video scripts. Topics include endpoint security, AI security, threat intelligence, insider risk, data loss prevention, application control, and DDoS protection. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT • Clear scope and realistic deliverables before work begins. • Regular updates and straightforward communication. • Evidence-backed findings with uncertainties explained. • Practical recommendations prioritized by impact. • A written report for investigations and security work, or a maintenance summary for ongoing website support. Tell me what you’re experiencing, what you need delivered, and your timeline. I’ll help define a focused scope and the next steps.
