What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to enhance IT resilience and security while fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment.

I am a results-driven Information Security Analyst with a strong focus on vulnerability and patch management, IT project implementation, and business continuity planning. My expertise lies in developing and executing security strategies that effectively mitigate risks and enhance IT resilience. With a proven track record in managing IT operations and ensuring compliance with international standards, I have successfully led various IT projects that align with organizational goals.

Currently, I serve as an IT Strategy and Planning Analyst at Saudi Aramco, where I have developed and executed IT disaster recovery and business continuity plans, ensuring compliance with ISO 22301. My role involves coordinating annual IT audits and leading the implementation of IT services continuity plans, which have significantly improved our security and compliance posture. I am also certified in Business Continuity (CBCI), which complements my hands-on experience in securing enterprise environments.
