Dev Patel

I am a cybersecurity-focused Computer Science senior with practical experience in ISO 27001 audits, incident response, and offensive and defensive security practices. I combine academic rigor with hands-on lab work and published research to solve real-world security challenges.

At Fidelity Information Services and Lemonav, I contributed to control mapping, risk registers, BIAs, and incident response playbooks, measurably improving audit readiness and organizational security posture. I have experience evaluating and improving the effectiveness of security controls across multiple business units.

As an NSF-selected undergraduate researcher, I co-authored an IEEE paper on UAV cybersecurity and designed layered defense models using NIST, MITRE ATT&CK, and ISO/IEC 27001 frameworks. I also ran lab simulations such as SYN flood DoS and keylogging demonstrations to highlight vulnerabilities and remediation strategies.

I am driven to apply my technical skills and framework knowledge to safeguard systems, strengthen organizational defenses, and contribute to measurable improvements in compliance and incident readiness.
