About me
Hi, I'm Sruthi, a security analyst who lights up when something breaks and nobody knows why yet. By day I live in SIEMs and SOAR playbooks, teaching them to catch what attackers hope I'll miss. By night I take those same attacks apart on my blog, TECHCRIT, so the rest of us can sleep a little easier. I collect certifications, CTF flags, and browser tabs I swear I'll read later. I spin up VMs the way normal people make coffee, I never trust a package update on day one, and my threat model officially includes Mondays.
