Ekahau
Primary tool for wireless site surveys, predictive design, coverage analysis, and post-deployment validation in healthcare and campus environments.
Wireshark
Protocol analysis, packet capture, and traffic troubleshooting — essential for roaming issues and interference investigations.
Cisco Packet Tracer
Network simulation, routing, and VLAN design for validating topology before deployment.
Nmap & Nessus
Network reconnaissance and vulnerability scanning from my security engineering background.
Burp Suite
Web application security testing — SQL injection, SSRF, and vulnerability assessment workflows.
SIEM / Kali Linux
Log analysis, threat detection, and penetration testing for secure wireless and network deployments.
Work
