Whoami

🖐️ Hi! I’m Yazeed Allabadi, a student at the University of Jordan. Majoring in Cyber Security, I’ve been practicing both Red Teaming and Blue teaming daily since the start of my journey as a cybersecurity bachelor candidate and I’m happy with where my feet has landed to so far.

💭 About Me

---

• Since the last few years I’ve been exposing myself to as much cybersecurity content to enrich my knowledge both theoretically and practically.
• I like to stay up to date with the latest technical discoveries in the world of cybersecurity including the newest CVE’s and attack methodologies as well as their countermeasures → Which is why I like to spend most of my time doing rooms at Tryhackme and solving Hackthebox machines which are spectacular learning resources for me.
• So far I’ve been able to pass some industry recognized certifications like eJPTv2 , INEICCA (INE Certified Cloud Associate) and ISC2 CC .
  • eJPTv2 (E-learn Junior Penetration Tester) - Learned Red Teaming and Penetration Testing through Hands-On training lab material and exam assessment which covered the full stages of a successful penetration testing engagement.
  • ICCA (INE Certified Cloud Associate) - Training Material involved Cloud Foundations and basics in addition to hands-on labs on cloud environments.
  • ISC2 CC (Certified in Cybersecurity) - Training and exam process covered Risk Management , Risk Assessment in addition to Security Operations and best practices with respect to following global standards and regulations.
• I’m currently trying to pass the HTBCDSA (Certified Defensive Security Analyst) certification from HackTheBox which by far is the toughest and the biggest in terms of course material and is also one of the hardest assessments for aspiring SOC Analysts and Incident handlers.
  • I’ll be posting a review of my CDSA exam and certification experience here soon so stay tuned !
