Industrial Protocol Analysis / Zeek Plugin Development

R&D work focused on understanding OPC UA behavior in industrial environments and translating that knowledge into protocol-aware monitoring for SINEC Security Monitor.

>> zeek-build --protocol opcua --lab ot-rnd
+Researched OPC UA protocol behavior in an R&D lab using PLCs, Wireshark, and UAExpert to simulate normal and abnormal communication scenarios.
+Developed a Zeek-based protocol analysis plugin for SINEC Security Monitor to inspect and parse OPC UA traffic and emit event-specific logs.
+Defined attack procedures and generated test data to validate detection, certificate handling, access-level checks, and write-response conditions.
