What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an immediate remote or U.S.-based contract engagement where I can strengthen ISO 27001 governance, security control assurance, audit readiness, risk treatment, and compliance remediation.

At Ardova Plc, I support ISO/IEC 27001-compliant ISMS implementation, audits, NDPR compliance, and enterprise risk treatment, helping reduce organisational non-conformities by 40%.

I've led IT risk management and cybersecurity activities at Eko Electricity Distribution Company, reporting security risks, directing VAPT assessments, tracking remediation, and leading a small security team.

Across energy, financial services, FinTech, banking, and telecommunications, I bring 12+ years of hands-on experience gathering audit evidence, reviewing controls, maintaining compliance documentation, and applying ISO 27001, NIST CSF, COBIT, IAM, and network security practices.
