Responsible for delivering cybersecurity engineering services with a focus on email security and endpoint protection, including design, implementation, and continuous improvement across Proofpoint, Microsoft 365/O365, Microsoft Defender, and CrowdStrike:

  • Plan, implement, configure, upgrade, and monitor security controls protecting enterprise networks, endpoints, and collaboration/email platforms (Proofpoint, O365, MS Defender, CrowdStrike).

  • Engineer and maintain email security capabilities including anti-phishing, malware detonation/analysis, impersonation protection, URL/attachment defense, and policy tuning; support improvements to mail flow and authentication (e.g., SPF/DKIM/DMARC alignment as applicable).

  • Engineer and maintain endpoint security (EDR/NGAV) capabilities including prevention policies, detection tuning, containment workflows, device isolation/quarantine procedures, and fleet-wide deployment/health monitoring.

  • Assess vulnerabilities and security risks across email and endpoint ecosystems; propose, implement, and validate risk mitigation strategies (hardening, policy updates, rule tuning, and control coverage improvements).

  • Ensure appropriate security controls and governance are in place to safeguard digital files and critical infrastructure, including configuration baselines, access controls, and monitoring/telemetry standards.

  • Respond to security incidents (phishing, account compromise, malware, ransomware, endpoint outbreaks) by coordinating triage, containment, eradication, recovery, and lessons learned—leveraging Defender and CrowdStrike response actions and Proofpoint intelligence/workflows.

  • Integrate and optimize tooling outputs (alerts, logs, and threat intelligence) across platforms to improve detection fidelity, reduce false positives, and enhance operational response (including workflow automation where applicable).

  • Support year-round tracking, reporting, and guidance for POA&Ms and CMMC assessments, including control implementation evidence, remediation planning, and ongoing control effectiveness validation for email and endpoint security domains.
