A proactive Cybersecurity Analyst & Risk management specialist | Security+ Certified.
Welcome to the digital fortress of Daniel LODI, a proactive Cyber security Analyst and aspiring Cybersecurity Consultant. I specialize in delivering quantifiable security outcomes, not just reports. By leading initiatives to align security frameworks, and optimize SIEM platforms (Wazuh, Splunk, QRadar), I was able to achieve a 40% reduction in security incidents and developed new logic that increased malware identification accuracy by 70%. My expertise extends to NIST-aligned Incident Response, where the implementation of layered security controls has demonstrably enhanced response speed by 75% and cut breach pathways by 25%. Partner with me for a comprehensive data-driven Threat Detection and Vulnerability management.
About Me
Let’s start with my favorite quote from the former CEO of CISCO: “There are two types of companies: those that have been hacked and those that don’t know they have been hacked,” – John Chambers”.
So I sit at the intersection of companies who have not been hacked to build a solid cyber defense against attacks and those who have been hacked to help restore business continuity and put in place controls to reduce the threat surface.

According to Microsoft Digital Defense Report 2024: Over 600 million cyber attacks happen everyday around the globe, this calls for tightened security controls in organizations and security posture enhancements to keep the evolving threats at bay. My expertise is structured around providing security that is both technically robust and governable. I focus on the strategic implementation of controls to achieve true organizational resilience and objectives.
My approach centers on the critical stages of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework—Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover, and Govern. I possess deep technical knowledge in optimizing the tools that form the backbone of modern security operations centers (SOCs):
My Mission.
To architect cyber defenses that are financially informed, translating technical security controls into measurable business resilience.
My tools of trade.
Project Portfolio
- Deployment of a functional open-source Wazuh SIEM and EDR environment.
- Collect, analyze, and visualize system and security events
- Simulate and detect real-world attack behaviors
- Demonstrate SOC (Security Operations Center) and MITRE ATT&CK skills
- Analyzing a packet capture (PCAP) file containing internal user network traffic.
- Detecting suspicious connections and web activity over the network.
- Reconstructing and extracting transferred files and images
- Documenting findings in a structured investigation report.
- Implemented secure encryption workflows using symmetric (AES) and asymmetric (RSA) cryptography to protect data confidentiality across test communication channels and local storage systems.
- Developed custom encryption and decryption scripts with secure key generation, hashing (SHA-256), and integrity validation to prevent tampering, unauthorized access, and replay attacks.
