Abhinav Nampally

As a dedicated and passionate cybersecurity professional, I am currently pursuing a Master's in Information Systems Management with a focus on Cyber Security and Cloud Computing at the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. My academic journey began with a Bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering from Balaji Institute of Technology and Science, where I developed a strong foundation in various technical domains.

My professional experience spans over three years at Infosys Limited, where I advanced from Systems Engineer to Senior Systems Engineer. In these roles, I implemented and managed network security policies, integrated over 500 firewalls, and conducted regular vulnerability assessments. My expertise includes network protocols, firewalls, IDS/IPS, and SIEM tools such as SolarWinds and Spectrum. I have a proven track record of ensuring compliance with financial regulations and reducing audit findings by 40%.

I am proficient in multiple programming languages, including C, C++, and Python, and have hands-on experience with a wide range of tools and technologies, such as Tufin, Algosec, Checkpoint MDS, FortiGate, Cisco, PaloAlto, Splunk, Wireshark, ServiceNow, Nmap, Nessus, and Qualys. My certifications in Enterprise Security, Vulnerability Management, Ethical Hacking, and CCNA further attest to my commitment to continuous learning and professional development.

Beyond my technical skills, I am passionate about giving back to the community. I aim to promote cybersecurity awareness and education, particularly among underrepresented groups, through workshops and seminars. I also aspire to mentor young professionals entering the field, sharing my experiences and guiding them towards successful careers in technology.
