Sheriff Fennec-Avokpo
@sherifffennec-avokpo
I strengthen cybersecurity governance through IT audits, risk assessments, control testing, and compliance remediation.
What I'm looking for
At Network Elites, I conduct risk assessments, test internal controls, and support IT audits across information security, operational, regulatory, and technology risks.
I've developed risk registers, control matrices, audit workpapers, compliance reports, and remediation trackers while supporting NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, SOX, and HIPAA initiatives. I assess access management, data protection, change management, incident response, business continuity, and third-party risk controls, turning deficiencies into practical corrective actions.
Previously at Heartland IT Consulting, I delivered compliance assessments and assurance reviews, prepared executive briefings, and helped teams improve audit readiness, accountability, and continuous control improvement.
