Shelly Dobbins-Moore
@shellydobbins-moore
Cybersecurity, intelligence, and AI security leader who hardens mission-critical systems through incident response, testing, and risk analysis.
What I'm looking for
I’m a cybersecurity, intelligence, and AI security leader with 10+ years supporting mission-critical cyber operations across Fortune 50 and federal environments. I specialize in strengthening enterprise cyber capabilities by aligning cyber programs to organizational risk tolerance.
At Wells Fargo, I lead cyber intelligence, insider-threat investigations, and post-incident analysis to improve both response and preventive controls. I also support cyber governance, policy development, security standards for AI and enterprise platforms, and perform cyber risk assessments, model risk evaluations, and security reviews for AI-enabled systems.
I drive cyber product testing and validation of security controls across CI/CD pipelines and cloud environments, integrating behavioral, technical, and contextual indicators into enterprise analytics. Previously, I supported ML-driven anomaly detection and cyber behavioral analytics in managed multi-tenant cloud environments, and I performed vulnerability assessments and penetration testing of federal applications and APIs.
Earlier roles included UEBA engineering and Scrum leadership for insider-threat analytics and cyber behavioral modeling, plus network administration and hardening support in high-availability research environments. I bring a practical blend of incident response, forensics, secure software assurance, and AI/ML security, backed by an MBA, an MS in Cybersecurity, and certifications including CISSP and AWS CCP.
