About Syed H.
At EMPLOYERS, my tenure as an engineer sharpens my expertise in cybersecurity engineering. In my prior role at EMPLOYERS, I was an entry-level penetration tester gaining valuable experience using tools like Cobalt Strike and Core Impact to name a few. Leveraging AWS environments and scaling them using Terraform, honing skills essential for identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities within complex systems, CIS hardening, and reducing our MTTR to incidents with custom built automations. Our team\'s efforts in third-party risk assessments and security monitoring are pivotal in safeguarding our critical infrastructure. As a graduate in Information Technology engineering from George Mason University, I specialized in Cybersecurity. I am bridging the gap between technical proficiency and business acumen, aiming to deliver robust security solutions and strategic risk management through my engineering acumen. My goal is to evolve into a CISO, leveraging my background in business administration to enhance organizational resilience against digital threats.
