As a seasoned cybersecurity professional, I specialise in strengthening security through comprehensive assessments, rigorous testing, and continuous improvements. My expertise spans cloud security, Kubernetes, and web application security, with a strong focus on mitigating risks and enhancing resilience across complex IT environments.

I lead cloud security assessments, applying industry-standard frameworks such as CLOUD TOP 10 (AWS, GCP, Azure), to ensure robust protection of cloud infrastructures. My work includes in-depth security testing of Kubernetes environments based on the KUBERNETES TOP 10, identifying potential vulnerabilities, and implementing effective mitigation strategies. Additionally, I conduct advanced web application security evaluations aligned with the OWASP TOP 10 and SANS CWE 25, providing actionable insights that significantly reduce exposure to common attack vectors.

A key aspect of my approach is the integration of automation to streamline security workflows and drive operational efficiency. By developing custom automation pipelines, I have reduced manual overhead, enabling me to focus on higher-priority, complex security challenges. I also utilise open-source intelligence (OSINT) techniques and external attack surface identification to deliver a comprehensive view of an organisation’s security posture, proactively identifying threats before they materialise.

Key Achievements:

- Spearheaded web application security assessments based on OWASP TOP 10 and SANS CWE 25, resulting in significant risk reduction and enhanced vulnerability management.
- Conducted extensive cloud security audits leveraging the CLOUD TOP 10 (AWS, GCP, Azure), improving the overall security posture of cloud-based environments.
- Led detailed Kubernetes security evaluations and identified critical vulnerabilities in containerised environments, enabling timely remediation.
- Deployed OSINT strategies and external attack surface identification to enhance threat intelligence and strengthen defence mechanisms.
- Developed automation pipelines to streamline repetitive tasks, increasing testing efficiency and enabling a focus on high-impact security issues.
