I am CISSP certified and seasoned information security consultant and CISO enhancing security posture of companies. As the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), I am responsible for leading the development and execution of the organization’s cybersecurity strategy, focusing on protecting critical assets and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. My role involves helping start-ups and SaaS-based products build secure and compliant systems by providing guidance on Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), ensuring they meet industry best practices and regulatory requirements, such as GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001. A key aspect of my work is incident response, where I manage the process with the necessary tools and defined roles, ensuring rapid and effective responses to security events. I oversee the administration of SIEM and SOC tools, perform threat management, modelling, and develop use cases for security monitoring. Additionally, I mentor and guide the SOC team, facilitating knowledge transfer and promoting skill development. I ensure the integration of both standard and non-standard logs into SIEM and adapt security monitoring rules to meet business requirements. I am also responsible for building and maintaining incident response playbooks, creating reports and dashboards, and working closely with stakeholders to improve security operations. I provide oversight on analysis activities and collaborate with technical and business teams to resolve incidents. I continuously evaluate emerging threats and vulnerabilities, keeping our incident response procedures up-to-date and effective. Along with managing security operations, I focus on securing AI and machine learning technologies, safeguarding against risks such as data poisoning, adversarial attacks, and algorithmic bias. I guide start-ups in implementing responsible AI practices, securing AI pipelines, and adhering to evolving regulations. In my leadership role, I balance strategic oversight, technical expertise, and practical advice, enabling organizations to scale securely, maintain compliance, and leverage technology to drive growth while upholding a strong security posture.
