Jonathan Lwanga

Welcome to my online portfolio! 

As a CompTIA Security+ certified professional, I am dedicated to the realms of network security and operational excellence. My extensive experience in security architecture, operations, and threat mitigation underscores my commitment to protecting organizations from cyber threats and establishing robust security frameworks.

I specialize in designing and implementing comprehensive security architectures, including configuring and managing advanced firewalls, VPNs, IDS/IPS, and network segmentation to create a layered defense strategy. My expertise ensures that security is seamlessly integrated into every aspect of IT infrastructure, providing a resilient and secure environment.

In the capacity of a Network Security Operations Analyst, I excel in monitoring and analyzing network traffic, performing real-time threat detection, and managing incident response activities. I effectively utilize SIEM solutions such as Splunk, LogRhythm, and QRadar, along with endpoint protection platforms like Symantec and McAfee, to identify and respond to security incidents, minimizing impact and ensuring swift recovery.

My continuous threat and vulnerability management efforts involve conducting regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing using tools like Nmap, Nessus, and Metasploit. By identifying potential security gaps, I develop and implement mitigation strategies to guard against advanced persistent threats (APTs) and other cyber attacks.

I am adept at developing and enforcing IT security policies, procedures, and guidelines. With a solid foundation in cybersecurity principles, I am dedicated to fostering a culture of security awareness through training programs, phishing simulations, and continuous education, empowering users to recognize and respond to potential threats.
