What I'm looking for
At ULTIMA BUSINESS SOLUTIONS, I manage vulnerability remediation and patching governance across approximately 9,000 servers for a Magic Circle law firm. I maintained a 7-day patching SLA and delivered required zero-day and emergency updates within agreed timelines over a 16-month period.

I also implemented Microsoft security protections for clients and supported incident response for compromised accounts, phishing and malware.
I helped build the cyber security department at WW COMPUTERS and later managed a security engineer as the team grew. I developed managed security services and delivered security audits and risk assessments across private, public-sector and political organisations.
