PERSONAL STATEMENT

Over the years, I have acquired specific academic qualifications and achievements. I have scaled
through my undergraduate programme at the prestigious Eastern Mediterranean University,
Cyprus, in the year *** with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Resource Management.
Upon completion, I worked at a Human Resource Firm and thereafter, a Real Estate firm, where
I provided services such as computer networking and setting up the business e-mail domains.

During my tenure at the Real Estate firm, I witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of cyber

sensitive information and disrupted our operations. The aftermath of this incident left me deeply
troubled, realizing the vulnerability of businesses to such malicious attacks. This experience
served as a wake-up call, igniting my passion for cybersecurity. I recognized the urgent need for
professionals equipped with the knowledge and skills to defend against evolving cyber threats.
Motivated by a desire to prevent others from experiencing similar breaches, I resolved to pursue
a career in cybersecurity.

In ensuring improved professional knowledge, I took up a certificate program on Google

Cybersecurity Certification in the year ***. This experience further solidified my commitment to
the field, as I immersed myself in understanding the intricacies of cybersecurity measures and
techniques.
