Hi, I’m Michelle Mahaney — a cybersecurity enthusiast and soon-to-be graduate of the ASU Cybersecurity Bootcamp. With a strong foundation in network defense, system hardening, threat detection, and hands-on tools like Splunk and Snort, I’m passionate about protecting systems and solving real-world security challenges.
My journey into cybersecurity began with a deep interest in how systems work and how they can be secured against evolving threats. Since then, I’ve honed my skills through intensive coursework, labs, and projects that simulate real-world environments — from monitoring attack logs to building secure web infrastructure.
I’m excited to launch my career in cybersecurity and bring my attention to detail, problem-solving mindset, and commitment to continuous learning to a team that’s making a real impact.
