Manage enterprise risk assessments, risk registers, third-party vendor risk programs, and remediation initiatives.
Oversee vulnerability management, patch coordination, access reviews, and technical security controls across cloud and on-premises environments.
Lead incident response activities, including preparation, detection, containment, recovery, and post-incident reviews.
Provide security architecture guidance for new systems, integrations, cloud solutions, and data platforms.
Build and manage security awareness, phishing simulation, and employee training programs.
Partner with business and project teams to ensure security and privacy requirements are incorporated into solution design.
