During my internship at SNSKIES, I have gained hands-on experience in networking, infrastructure, and cybersecurity through practical projects and technical tasks. Initially, I worked on designing and configuring enterprise-standard network environments using Cisco Packet Tracer. My responsibilities included the division of IP's using VLSM, configuring multiple routing protocols and route redistribution, ensuring dynamic routing, DHCP snooping, port security, routing protocol authentication, implementing firewalls and ACLs, configuration of services on a corporate server, hardening Layer 3 switches, configuring secure remote SSH access, and troubleshooting network connectivity and configuration issues. I also worked on Docker configuration and python scripting, gaining practical exposure to containerized environments, infrastructure management and automating admin level tasks that would otherwise cost hours. Currently, I am working with the OpenCTI platform, focusing on platform configuration, threat intelligence workflows, analysis of active threats, incident response, reporting, and technical documentation. This internship has allowed me to apply my networking and cybersecurity knowledge in practical environments while continuously developing my skills in network security, defensive cybersecurity, threat intelligence, Linux, infrastructure, and troubleshooting.
