Abdullah Atef
@abdullahatef
I design Zero Trust networks, automate SOC workflows, and secure enterprise infrastructure.
EgyptWhat I'm looking for
At AlShahin, I design Zero Trust security architecture, deploy FortiGate and Forcepoint firewalls, and build secure DMZ environments with BunkerWeb WAF to protect production applications.
I've built ELK Stack monitoring and Kibana dashboards, automated threat-intelligence workflows with JavaScript, n8n, AbuseIPDB, and VirusTotal, and migrated enterprise endpoint protection to Kaspersky Cloud Console with zero downtime. I also resolved critical IP overlap and VLAN mismatch issues through a Proxmox NAT Gateway routing solution.
Previously at SUEZ, I installed OSSIM SIEM, investigated brute-force attempts and abnormal traffic, and supported Active Directory, DHCP, and Windows Server environments. I focus on reducing attack surfaces, improving detection quality, and keeping high-stakes production environments secure and available.
