About

I am a cloud security architect focused on identity. I was an Enterprise Support Lead at Amazon Web Services, and I am now a Senior Technical Account Manager at Ping Identity. That means I have worked both sides of the map most of this writing is about: the cloud provider that runs the five identity jobs in one engine, and the vendor that splits them across five products. I specialize in crafting secure, scalable solutions, optimizing cloud infrastructures, and addressing complex cybersecurity challenges. With over a decade of experience and a suite of AWS and cybersecurity certifications, I am passionate about delivering innovative strategies that align with organizational objectives and industry regulations. Fluent in Hebrew and English, I bring a global perspective and collaborative spirit to every project.

Tech Credentials

My technical expertise spans cloud security, AWS architecture, DevSecOps, Zero Trust, and cyber risk mitigation. I excel in Identity and Access Management (IAM), data protection, threat detection, and ensuring compliance with standards like SOC 2 and ISO 27001. With a strong foundation in zero trust architecture, virtualization, and CI/CD pipelines, I am adept at implementing secure and efficient cloud infrastructures.

My experience also includes leading incident response efforts, from security monitoring to breach management, and fostering team leadership to align solutions with organizational goals. Notable achievements include developing a no-code Security Improvement Program tool that drastically streamlined processes, designing governance frameworks tailored to enterprise needs, and delivering security programs that seamlessly integrate with DevOps practices.
