@shanusharma1
Experienced Vulnerability Management Specialist focused on reducing risk and ensuring compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am a cybersecurity professional with over 7.2 years of experience specializing in vulnerability management, compliance, and remediation across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments. I have hands-on expertise with Qualys VMDR and Policy Compliance, Rapid7, Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike, ServiceNow VR/SNCC, and SIEMs like Azure Sentinel and QRadar, and I consistently deliver audit-ready reporting and risk-reduction outcomes.
I drive end-to-end vulnerability lifecycles—detection through remediation—by prioritizing findings using CVSS/CVE, integrating tooling for automation, and working closely with cross-functional teams to close gaps. I have implemented platform setups, dashboarding, training, and exception management at enterprise scale, and I seek roles where I can continue improving security posture and compliance programs.
