@jeffanderson1
Senior cybersecurity engineer and reporting analyst driving measurable risk reduction.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned cybersecurity specialist and reporting analyst with 25+ years delivering secure Classified and Unclassified programs that align with business strategy and accelerate outcomes. I build data-driven security reporting (Power BI, SQL, Excel) and led RMF/A&A efforts that produced multiple ATOs, significant vulnerability remediation, and measurable cost savings.
My hands-on delivery includes administering Azure tenants, authoring SSPs/IPs/TRs/POAMs, reducing control workloads through inheritability plans, and creating remediation command centers that cut overdue criticals ~20–25% and reduced manual reporting ~40%. I hold CISSP, CISM, PMP, CEHv10 and data-focused certifications and combine technical depth with program leadership to improve security posture and operational efficiency.
