ADEMOLA ADAMS
@ademolaadams
I lead enterprise security programs that reduce risk across cloud and infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
I've led enterprise security programs at NYCHA, Global Payments, HSBC, Merck, and other global organizations, spanning vulnerability management, penetration testing, cloud security, incident response, threat intelligence, and risk governance.
At NYCHA, I own the cybersecurity engineering roadmap and budget, lead vulnerability management across 2,400+ buildings and 200,000+ apartments, and rebuilt application security through Veracode, GitHub Actions, and webhooks—reducing vulnerabilities and misconfigurations reaching production by 80%.
I've built teams, security operations, remediation programs, and executive reporting that translate complex findings into prioritized action. My work has reduced risk exposure, improved cloud and endpoint security, accelerated incident response, and strengthened compliance across regulated environments.
