ABOUT HUSSAIN SHAIKH

I’m a dedicated and results-driven Cyber Security professional with over 7+ years of experience working in the insurance sector. Throughout my career, I’ve developed strong expertise in incident response, threat mitigation, and vulnerability management, helping to safeguard business-critical systems and data in a highly regulated environment.My background in ICT has given me a solid technical foundation, allowing me to identify, analyse, and mitigate security risks effectively across the business. I have a proven track record of responding to and managing security incidents with speed and precision, minimising impact and ensuring business continuity.I’m passionate about staying ahead of evolving cyber threats and take a proactive approach to building strong security postures. I communicate confidently with both technical teams and senior stakeholders, and I’m now looking to further develop my career as a Cyber Security Analyst—ideally within the East Midlands—where I can continue protecting organisations through effective threat management and incident response strategies.
