Message

At IQGroup, I lead information security for the group’s ISP and enterprise infrastructure. I oversee security operations and incident response, manage core controls including firewalls, EDR, and WAF, and secure workloads across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.

I designed and built a privileged access management platform for enterprise clients to secure, monitor, and audit privileged accounts and sessions. My work also spans cybersecurity research, AI-enabled products, and training; I delivered cybersecurity workshops to more than 100 government officers across the Kurdistan Region.
