Simi Pitan

I am a Network Security Engineer with experience designing, implementing, and optimizing firewall and cloud security solutions using Palo Alto, Check Point, Fortinet, Prisma Cloud, Prisma SASE, and Cisco security products. I have a Master of Science in Cyber Security Management and practical experience across incident response, firewall policy optimization, vulnerability assessment, and compliance frameworks including NIST, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS.

I have a proven track record securing enterprise networks in both US and Nigerian environments, leading HA firewall deployments, managing VPN and endpoint protections, and transitioning controls to cloud platforms such as AWS and Azure. I collaborate closely with network and systems teams, maintain thorough documentation, and drive security operations to reduce risk and ensure business continuity.
