A little about me

Security is a journey, not a destination.

Be prepared for the next event, and you will have achieved 50% of readiness.

As a cybersecurity professional, I manage the risks that reduce the exposure of data and information resident on systems — whether on‑premises or cloud‑hosted — from unauthorized access.

My approach pairs deep technical security with management discipline: I understand both the packets and the policies, the controls and the KPIs that prove they work. The result is security that is measurable, defensible, and aligned with the business.

Let's establish a business relationship that protects your information assets and supports your objectives.

What I do

I do amazing things for clients.

Engagements that protect technology assets and move objectives forward — from strategy through implementation and ongoing assurance.

01

Project Management

Target‑Based Execution (TBE). I work with you to define requirements, resources, and timelines — setting the stage for strategic alignment with SMART outcomes.

02

Cybersecurity

Zero Trust applied across user identity profiles, device posture (IoT, mobile, servers, workstations) and applications — a unique matrix that traditional approaches can't manage alone.

03

Work Optimization

Process management, resource allocation, and KPIs are the foundation of efficient systems — no matter how complex. I understand the difference between logs and metrics.

04

Risk Management

Certified in Risk & Information Systems Control (CRISC) and Data Privacy (CDPSE). I adopt the Risk Management Framework to categorize, control, assess, authorize, and monitor.

05

Multi‑Cloud Security

As organizations move workloads and infrastructure to the cloud, I implement and manage the controls that keep them secure — backed by AWS (SAA, Security Specialty), Azure (AZ‑500, SC‑100) and Google Cloud (Professional Cloud Security Engineer) certifications.

06

Virtual Desktop Deployments

Azure Virtual Desktop delivers virtualized Windows desktops and apps securely in the cloud for the enterprise. I deliver it with two defining certifications — AZ‑500 and AZ‑140.

Engineering

Custom Controls in a Proprietary Environment

Designing and implementing bespoke security controls inside a proprietary platform where off‑the‑shelf tooling didn't fit.

— Dexter Joseph, MBA
Incident Response

Ransomware: Identification & Recovery

A real‑world account of detecting a ransomware incident and driving recovery — what worked, what was learned, and what to harden next.
