About

Dedicated cybersecurity professional in safeguarding organizations against the ever-evolving cyber threats in the digital landscape. With a solid background in threat detection, vulnerability assessment, and risk management, I have successfully defended numerous enterprises against cyber attacks. My passion for cybersecurity enabled me to obtain numerous certifications such as OSCE, OSCP, OSWP, GCPN, GICSP and ISO27001 LI/LA. As a dynamic Cybersecurity Leader at SAP Global Security, I lead and encourage a highly capable and diverse team of seven, fostering an environment of innovation and excellence. I provide valuable assistance to our business units, guiding them through the entire security transformation journey. From the initial assessment to designing effective security programs, I work closely with them to ensure a seamless process. My expertise enables me to implement transformation roadmaps and take charge of the implementation phase, all the while focusing on increasing their cyber-resilience preparedness. Additionally, I specialize in leading the development of secure cloud native applications using the SAP Business Technology Platform, ensuring the development of secure, robust and scalable solutions. My commitment to cybersecurity and leadership excellence drives both team success and organizational growth. "I always tried to turn every disaster into an opportunity." John D. Rockefeller

Ethical Hacker | Penetration Tester Mentor

Jul 2021Present · 4 yrs 10 mos

  • I find it puzzling that so many young people struggle to find their individual way. Sometimes it is challenging to offer career advice to young professionals that are engaged outside of our own professional context. In my opinion, one should not have all the answers to every question in the world.
  • Real mentoring is more about how to provoke other people to think outside of the box and help them believe in their capabilities to grow and develop their personality indefinitely. That is the reason why I am pleased to be an Udacity mentor and help every person around the globe to get aspired to great knowledge and make an impact.
