Gabriel Adewunmi
@gabrieladewunmi
I’m a Senior Security Specialist specializing in Splunk Cloud SIEM and cloud security architecture across multi-cloud.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Security Specialist with 10+ years of experience architecting, integrating, and operating security solutions across enterprise-scale, 24/7 hybrid environments. I’m especially strong in Splunk Cloud SIEM engineering and operational support—designing, deploying, and tuning the platform across multi-cloud (AWS, Azure) and varied operating systems.
I translate business requirements into robust Splunk Cloud integrations while establishing ITIL-aligned security processes that improve day-to-day detection reliability. I’ve guided cross-functional teams on cloud security architecture, identity and access management, threat detection, and incident response—consistently supporting modern enterprise security monitoring programs on time.
My impact is measurable: I achieved a 45% reduction in false positives and phishing incidents through custom rule tuning and automation, and I built SOAR playbooks to automate alert triage—saving 120+ analyst hours/month and reducing MTTD/MTTR by 40%. I also deployed DLP using Microsoft Purview (reducing shadow IT exposure by 65%), reduced critical CVEs by 70% via vulnerability assessments, maintained 99.9% SLA compliance through ITIL-based incident/problem management, and improved phishing outcomes by 75% through KnowBe4 initiatives.
