Cybersecurity consultant driving risk-based security and compliance.
BangladeshWhat I'm looking for
I am a seasoned cybersecurity and information security consultant with over 25 years in ICT and more than a decade focused on cybersecurity, risk, and compliance. I combine hands-on technical delivery—designing and operating SIEM, SOAR, XDR, NDR, PAM, DLP and vulnerability management—with strategic advisory to CISOs and executive leadership.
Throughout my career I have led enterprise security programs, SOC operations, regulatory audits, and large-scale implementations for financial, government, and nonprofit clients, delivering measurable improvements in detection, resilience, and compliance. I have conducted IT/IS audits, developed policies aligned to ISO 27001 and NIST, and managed vendor and project lifecycles end-to-end.
I hold certifications including CISA and ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor, dual master's degrees (MBA in MIS and MSc in Computer Science), and I am actively seeking opportunities across Europe, UK, UAE, or APAC to support secure digital transformation and resilience initiatives.
