Welcome, My name is Paola Baez, and I am completing my Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity. Throughout my academic journey, I have gained hands-on experience in penetration testing, risk assessment, security policy development, and vulnerability management. I am passionate about protecting digital assets and building secure systems by applying frameworks such as NIST, SSDF, and CMMC. This portfolio highlights my technical skills, certifications, and curated project work—including security plans, policies, and case studies—that demonstrate both my technical expertise and my ability to think strategically. My goal is to build a career as a Security Operations Center (SOC) Analyst or Penetration Tester, contributing to the defense of organizations against evolving cyber threats.
