About Ben saxon:

While at Anglia Ruskin University I have worked on numerous projects both inside and outside of my academic career, such as live briefs for network design and implementation to digital forensics in both static and dynamic environments. I am also currently in the process of creating my final project that looks to implement the methodology of zero trust into IOT device security from both a network standpoint as well as the data collection side of IOT as well as utilise new frameworks that are becoming the industry standard for data driven utility such as the react framework, nodeJS, python and other scripting tools to add utility to projects. I have also undertaken the steps to learn penetration testing through the hackthebox platform currently with 23 machines successfully exploited. 

Experience


Certainly, here's a revised version that aligns more closely with the tone and style of the original text:

As a DevOps Engineer intern at WorkTribe, I learned the ropes of deploying virtual machines via VMware’s cloud-based utility. Interfacing with APIs became second nature, especially emphasizing security and safety measures. Moreover, I contributed to the development of a system monitoring web application, which proved invaluable for alerting DevOps of any issues with physical machines, from low storage space to high CPU utilization.

During my stint at Express Recruitment (Experian), I delved into HRDI, handling background checks and customer service. It was all about hitting targets efficiently while fostering camaraderie among colleagues for a lively work atmosphere. My agile approach ensured seamless processes to benefit both customers and candidates.

Stepping up as a Customer Team Leader at Co-op, I took charge of diligence checks and ensured stock accuracy, ensuring a hassle-free shopping experience. Collaborating with the store manager, I also chipped in with HR tasks, maintaining the operational flow.

At Eon Next, as a Residential Energy Specialist, I faced customers head-on, tackling queries, metering, billing issues, and complaints with finesse, thanks to top-notch software solutions.

 

Education

In terms of education, I pursued a B-tech diploma in Information Technology at Nottingham College, followed by a Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity at Anglia Ruskin University. Here, I immersed myself in projects ranging from network design to digital forensics, with a current focus on implementing zero-trust methodology in IoT device security.

Beyond academics, I thrive on hands-on projects, like crafting Arduino marvels such as a custom RPM gauge and a sound-reactive LED strip powered by a Raspberry Pi. Backend web development using PHP, Node.js, and Python is also a passion, alongside exploring various Linux distributions and cybersecurity tools.

You can find more about my projects on GitHub and connect with me on LinkedIn. Additionally, I'm an active member of professional bodies like CIISec and BCS, always seeking new avenues for growth and development.
