- Lead security architecture workshops, risk assessments, and governance reviews with client teams, translating complex findings into clear, executive-ready recommendations.
- Ensure alignment with security frameworks and compliance regulations including NIST, ISO/IEC 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and FedRAMP, while developing and refining incident response plans (MIRP).
