ABOUT DALE K.
As a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and Microsoft Certified Cybersecurity Architect Expert (SC-100), I design and guide secure, scalable security architectures that protect modern enterprise environments while enabling business objectives. I operate at the intersection of security strategy, architecture, and execution, translating risk into actionable design decisions across cloud, identity, data, and infrastructure.I specialize in Zero Trust architecture, cloud security design, identity-centric security models, and risk-informed decision-making, with a focus on building resilient security programs that scale across complex, regulated environments. My approach emphasizes security as an architectural discipline with aligning controls, policy, and technology into cohesive, enforceable systems rather than isolated tools.I influence outcomes by setting architectural direction, establishing guardrails, and enabling teams to execute securely at scale. I bring a disciplined, pragmatic mindset to security architecture, ensuring solutions are defensible, compliant, and operationally sustainable in high-stakes environments.Education:BBA in Business Management from Francis Marion UniversityCertifications:Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP)Microsoft Certified: Cybersecurity Architect Expert (SC-100)Microsoft Certified: Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500) Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator (SC-300)Microsoft Certified: Information Protection and Compliance Administrator (SC-400)SecurityX (formerly CASP+)Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-900)Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+)Security+Network+A+ Certified
