Hello, I'm Adam, a cybersecurity professional dedicated to protecting the digital realm and empowering the next generation of security experts.
My journey into cybersecurity began with a comprehensive course in Cyber Security Analysis [CySA+],
Where I gained a solid grounding in security principles, threat management, and best practices.
Since completing my training, I've built a diverse career spanning multiple facets of cybersecurity.
I started as a Network Operations Center [NOC] Engineer, where I honed my skills in system monitoring,
Deployment testing, and collaborating with engineers from around the globe.
This foundation proved invaluable as I transitioned into Security Operations Center [SOC] roles,
Where I've spent over two years protecting enterprise environments, critical infrastructure, and MSSP clients across diverse threat landscapes.

Security Operations Capabilities

Throughout my SOC career, I've specialized in rapid incident triage, phishing analysis, endpoint containment, and threat hunting using industry-leading EDR and SIEM platforms.
I've worked extensively with tools like Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike, Carbon Black, SentinelOne, IBM QRadar, and Azure Sentinel.
My experience spans both IT and OT environments, giving me a comprehensive understanding of modern threat landscapes and the importance of proactive defense.

Teaching & Mentorship

Currently, I'm channeling my field experience into education, teaching two specialized programs that reflect my passion for developing cybersecurity talent:
SOC & Blue Team Instructor for the Nitzanim Pro Track - I deliver hands-on training to high-potential 12th-grade students preparing for elite roles in the IDF's technological units.
Through live labs and real-world threat simulations, I teach core principles of SOC analysis, incident detection, log analysis, and defensive security measures, building the "muscle memory" these future defenders will need.
Bug Bounty Instructor with TripleP Cyber Security Experts - I guide aspiring ethical hackers through vulnerability assessment methodologies using platforms like Cycube and PortSwigger.
I work with students internationally, fostering their passion for cybersecurity by introducing them to real-world techniques and encouraging responsible disclosure practices.
These teaching roles allow me to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, preparing students for the challenges they'll face in the field.

Beyond the Screen

Outside of my professional life, I find balance and inspiration in gardening.
For me, nurturing plants mirrors the work I do in cybersecurity both demand patience, care, and the foresight to address issues before they arise.
My garden is a sanctuary where I can unwind, reflect, and draw meaningful parallels between growing plants and cultivating secure networks.
At home, I'm accompanied by Lucy, my spirited canine companion.
Lucy brings joy and a sense of grounding to my life, reminding me of the importance of staying connected to what truly matters.
Whether we're exploring the outdoors or enjoying quiet moments together, Lucy's presence adds a special dimension to my life.

Through this website, I aim to share my journey, insights, and reflections on cybersecurity, education, and the activities that inspire me.
I'm always eager to connect with fellow professionals, discuss industry trends, explore collaboration opportunities,
mentor aspiring security practitioners, or even exchange gardening tips.
