About Trevor Peters

I lead cybersecurity, compliance, and IT operations in a lean, startup-paced environment, balancing hands-on security engineering with program ownership and executive-level accountability.As the leader of our CMMC program, I took the organization from baseline to Level 2 C3PAO certified with zero findings on our first assessment, preserving eligibility for federal contracts. That outcome required building the full program from scratch: policy suite, SIEM, incident response, identity controls, and compliance infrastructure, all while keeping security operations running.I also serve as ISSM for our classified environment, where I led a successful DCSA Authorization to Operate (ATO) under NIST 800-53 RMF on first submission.Core areas of focus- CMMC & NIST SP 800-171/800-53 Compliance- Security Operations & SIEM (NeQter Labs, Splunk, ELK)- Incident Response & Detection Engineering- Security Architecture & Infrastructure (Fortinet, Entra ID, Intune)- IT Leadership & Team DevelopmentBefore transitioning to the private sector, I served 10 years in the United States Army supporting security operations and leading teams of up to 45 personnel.SECRET Clearance | BAS Cyber Operations | CompTIA Security+
