What I'm looking for
I am an emerging IT Security professional with a strong foundation in Identity and Access Management (IAM), cyber security, and network administration. My experience includes managing multi-factor authentication (MFA) systems, conducting vulnerability assessments, and implementing risk management strategies. I have a proven track record of supporting organizations during cyber incidents and ensuring compliance with security protocols.
Throughout my career, I have developed a specialized ability to harden networks and systems, utilizing tools such as Sailpoint, Active Directory, and various SIEM solutions. I thrive in high-pressure environments and have successfully led teams in incident response and project management. My goal is to leverage my skills in IAM to enhance security measures and support organizational objectives.
