Hi, I’m Parul Kalra, a Cybersecurity Analyst at Amazon UK, where I focus on Vulnerability Management Operations. Over the past three years, I’ve built experience in threat intelligence, incident response, and vulnerability management, helping organizations strengthen their security posture and reduce risks. Before Amazon, I worked at Deloitte, where I led threat-hunting projects, built Splunk dashboards to track critical CVEs, and delivered intelligence reports that made a real difference in detection and response. Along the way, I’ve been fortunate to receive the Arjuna Award at Deloitte, rank in the Top 3% globally on TryHackMe, and place in the Top 10 of the KPMG CTF Competition. I hold an MSc in Cybersecurity from the University of Birmingham, UK, and several industry certifications, including Microsoft Security Engineer Associate, Google Professional Cloud Security Engineer, and ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity. My toolkit includes SIEM platforms, cloud security, Python automation, and penetration testing labs. On TopMate, my goal is to share what I’ve learned, whether that’s helping students and professionals navigate their career paths, prepare for interviews, or understand complex security concepts in a simple way. If you’re starting your cybersecurity journey or looking to sharpen your skills, I’d love to support you.
