PeruWhat I'm looking for
I designed and implemented a cloud security environment in Azure and AWS, combining identity controls, network protection, and threat monitoring. I used VNets, subnets, NSGs, WAF, and firewall rules to apply network segmentation.
In the lab, I configured Microsoft Entra ID, RBAC, and MFA using the principle of least privilege. I also provisioned and hardened Linux virtual machines and used Microsoft Sentinel to simulate event detection and analysis through logs.
At OPTIMICE OUTSOURSING, I implemented security controls, managed critical data backups, and verified their integrity. I also collaborated on firewall rule validation and Zero Trust controls, and documented procedures and controls.
