PROFILE

Manish Kumar

Over six months, contributed to the Azure/Azure-Sentinel repository by building and enhancing cloud security automation and data engineering features. Developed a Terraform-provisioned data connector to ingest Google Cloud Platform VPC Flow Logs into Microsoft Sentinel, enabling cross-cloud threat monitoring. Migrated connectors to built-in tables for improved reliability, standardized naming conventions, and modernized playbook logic for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Focused on configuration management, deployment guidance, and documentation, including metadata-driven workbook governance and HIPAA compliance asset previews. Used Terraform, PowerShell, and JSON to streamline onboarding, clarify post-deployment steps, and align role-based access controls, resulting in maintainable, well-documented security solutions.
