Heidi Duckwitz

I am a proactive and detail-oriented Cybersecurity Professional with hands-on experience in SIEM monitoring, incident response, and vulnerability mitigation. My journey in cybersecurity began with an Associates in Cybersecurity and Computer Science, and I have since developed a robust skill set that includes assessing risk and aligning controls to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and ISO 27001. I take pride in my ability to explain complex technical issues to non-technical stakeholders, ensuring that security measures are understood and implemented effectively.

Currently, I am gaining valuable experience as a Cybersecurity Intern at Union Wireless, where I conduct SIEM alert management and incident triage. I have successfully performed risk assessments, configured firewalls, and implemented Data Leak Prevention measures. My role also involves creating security hardening guides and contributing to security policy documentation, which has strengthened the overall security posture of the organization. Additionally, my work as a Security Automation Contractor at CyberWyoming has allowed me to develop automation workflows that streamline security reporting and patching tasks, further enhancing my technical capabilities.
