I secure, structure, and manage cloud, SaaS, and modern workplace environments with a focus on control, resilience, and long-term maintainability. I work primarily across Microsoft 365, Microsoft Intune, Microsoft Endpoint Manager, and identity systems, ensuring environments are properly configured, access is controlled, and security is enforced without adding unnecessary complexity. With over 5 years of experience in cybersecurity and security engineering, I have worked across private and public sector environments, including military, handling vulnerability management, incident response, system hardening, and security operations. Certifications and training include: CompTIA CySA+, Security+, CSAP, Microsoft sc-200, with practical application across real-world environments. What I Do: I deploy and secure Microsoft 365 environments, configure Intune and Endpoint Manager, implement Conditional Access, MFA, and role-based access controls, and enforce least-privilege access across users and systems. I conduct security audits of SaaS and web applications, identify gaps, and remediate vulnerabilities to bring systems to a controlled state. I implement endpoint and identity protection, harden systems, and introduce targeted automation where it improves consistency and reduces operational overhead. For compliance, I align environments with requirements such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA, ensuring controls are in place and properly enforced. Results: Secure, structured environments with clearly defined access Reduced attack surface and improved security posture Controlled identity and device management Systems aligned with modern compliance expectations Stable, maintainable configurations without unnecessary complexity
