About Me

I’m Ian Guidry, a cybersecurity student looking for my first role in security operations, cloud security or DevSecOps. My interest in security started when my Xbox was taken offline by a DDoS attack and I wanted to understand how it worked. That curiosity grew into a focus on how systems fail and how to detect and stop attacks before they cause damage.

What I work on

My projects focus on the day-to-day work of security and cloud teams:

  • SIEM and log analysis: turning raw logs into detections that mean something
  • Investigations: following suspicious activity from the first alert to the root cause
  • Detection engineering: building, testing and tuning alerts, then attacking my own labs to prove they fire
  • Cloud security: least-privilege IAM, keyless CI/CD access with OIDC, and policy as code that blocks misconfigurations before they reach AWS
  • DevSecOps: security gates in CI/CD that scan, sign and policy-check every release before it runs

See the projects page for the write-ups and code.
