◉ On February 2023, provided an immediate incident response after the organization’s website, www.loyocameroon.org was hacked and hit with a cyberattack. The attacker noticed a vulnerability in one of the office emails to which he got access and exploited this as an attack surface to gain entry to the system. With an immediate incident response plan, I was able to work to resolve the issue, mitigating the attack, malware removals, cleaning and securing emails, and rebuilding the backend of the website.
