Working in global IT companies such as
IBM and industry-leading consulting companies such as
Deloitte and
Ernst&Young (EY) in roles as
Managing IT Security Consultant and
Senior Manager, I have gathered
more the 7 years of experience in Cyber and Manufacturing Security. Talking to workers on the shop floor, IT staff, engineers, and the C-Suite, I have noticed the
growing demand for integrated cyber organizations supporting the business to leverage its full potential while limiting potential impact on the day to day operation.
During this time, I have supported numerous
Fortune 500 companies, including life science, consumer retail, automotive, logistics, financial, etc., and multiple small and
medium-sized companies to:
- Perform a detailed current state analysis of their current cybersecurity maturity to identify and evaluate the overall risk profile
- Design a sustainable and holistic cybersecurity strategy including detailed financial planning, roadmap development, and management board presentation
- Develop and implement a comprehensive and client-tailored Target Operating Model (TOM), including transition planning
- Plan and run global Cyber and Production IT transformation programs to implement large scale technological and organizational renewal projects
- Design and implement a Security Operation Centers (SOC) including SIEM vendor selection processes, project management, implementation, process development, rule setup, and optimization and incident management planning and support in a role of a level 3 analyst
- Design and implement a Vulnerability Management Programs including tool selection processes, implementation support, vulnerability analysis, and process design
- Evaluate cybersecurity risks as part of Merger & Acquisition projects to identify potential weak points and design mitigating actions
With my
cybersecurity and engineering background and numerous years of hands-on experience, I have learned that organizational cybersecurity in the IT and manufacturing environment can only be implemented and
maintained considering a holistic approach focusing on people, processes, and technology. This is why my personal belief is that we should focus on all these layers to ensure a balanced organization
utilizing tools fitting to their environment,
skilled employees, and
fast and efficient processes.
