Role Focus

Cloud Security
Identity and access architecture, Azure-native security controls, zero-trust boundary design, and secure-by-default pipelines. Grounded in 9+ years of enterprise identity governance and hands-on Azure production work.
Detection Engineering
Custom rule authoring against observed traffic and log data, not off-the-shelf signature deployment. Snort, Sigma, Splunk SPL authored from packet analysis and SIEM pivots. Detection as a deployable artifact, tuned against false positives.
AI Security
Prompt-injection mitigation, multi-layer safety pipelines, structured output validation, and production-grade AI system design.

Security Research Disclosure

Authorized VDP Researcher · via Bugcrowd

I conduct vulnerability research only within authorized scopes — public bug bounty programs on Bugcrowd, documented Vulnerability Disclosure Programs (VDP), and systems I own or operate. I do not test systems I don't have permission to test, and I do not publicly disclose findings outside of the reporting channels specified by the program.

If you're a program owner responding to a coordinated disclosure or verifying VDP research activity, email is the fastest channel. For general inquiries about methodology, the documented investigations cover the same discipline applied in non-adversarial contexts.
