Establish trust boundaries and enforce appropriate controls, including workload isolation, access restrictions, and data protection measures.
Design and oversee cloud (AWS) security architecture and enforce least-privilege access.
Implement Kubernetes security controls, including Pod Security Standards, network segmentation, and workload isolation.
Lead the creation of incident response playbooks, monitoring dashboards, and alerting mechanisms for blockchain, AI, and cloud environments.
Conduct regular security assessments, penetration tests, and threat modeling to validate platform resilience.
Collaborate with blockchain architects, AI engineers, DevOps, and business teams to ensure security is embedded across all phases of development and operations.
