About me
Akash Parasumanna Sridhar is a cybersecurity professional working in healthcare environments, specializing in detection engineering, incident response, and security automation. He has hands-on experience designing SIEM-driven detections, integrating third-party security telemetry, and building SOAR workflows to improve response efficiency and reduce analyst workload in high-volume settings.
He has managed security operations end to end, including email security monitoring, threat detection, vulnerability management, and incident response within regulated healthcare environments. His approach prioritizes practical, real-world detection logic over theoretical frameworks, with a strong emphasis on visibility, defense-in-depth, and operational resilience.
Akash has also led hands-on evaluations and proof-of-concept testing across modern security platforms, using real attack scenarios to assess detection coverage and operational effectiveness. He is passionate about sharing lessons learned from real incidents and developing detection strategies that security teams can realistically apply in their own environments.
