• Validate severity, business impact, ownership, compensating controls, false-positive determinations, residual risk, and retest requirements.
• Partner with infrastructure, application, cloud, engineering, identity, and vendor teams to drive critical and high-risk findings to verified closure.
• Provide risk and compliance guidance for Windows and Linux environments, Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID, ERP platforms, cloud services, networks, logging, monitoring, patching, and system hardening.

Third-Party Risk and Operational Resilience

• Perform cybersecurity reviews of technology providers using questionnaires, certifications, SOC reports, penetration testing, contract requirements, and remediation evidence.
• Evaluate shared responsibility models and establish clear security obligations for SaaS, cloud, managed-service, and other technology providers.
• Support governance of business continuity, disaster recovery, business impact assessments, recovery objectives, resilience testing, and critical-application inventories.
• Support incident response governance, post-incident corrective actions, and assessment of systemic control issues.

• Communicate complex technical and regulatory matters in plain language appropriate for engineers, control owners, auditors, and executives.
