LIVE DEFENSE MODE
// about
Digital defender for financial-sector cybersecurity.
I work at the intersection of security operations, governance, vulnerability management and cyber awareness. My focus is to protect critical systems, reduce security risk and build practical cyber capability for teams and communities.
My background in secure software delivery and core banking systems helps me understand how attackers think, how business systems operate, and how security controls should be implemented without breaking real operations.
