About

Information security presents a critical challenge in today’s dynamic business landscape. From established enterprises managing complex, high-availability infrastructure to agile startups scaling rapidly, robust security is paramount. As organizational IT needs expand, so too does the sophistication of cybersecurity threats. Proactive management and engineering are essential to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information systems, while navigating evolving legal requirements, ensuring disaster preparedness, and addressing technology lifecycle management.

My work focuses on empowering organizations to meet evolving security compliance standards, establishing resilient business frameworks that integrate both physical and cybersecurity measures, and preparing comprehensive incident response strategies.
