Bio
Veronica Zvereva
I highly recommend my colleague Damian for his outstanding work as a Security Cloud Engineer. Having worked closely with him for almost a year, I can confidently say that he is extremely talented and knowledgeable in his field. Damian has a wealth of experience in Cloud Engineering and has consistently demonstrated his expertise in various projects. He is highly skilled in designing and implementing cloud-based solutions, and has a deep understanding of the latest technologies and best practices from a security perspective. He is able to think "from the attacker's perspective" and decide which blue team solution is best. His extensive knowledge in Cloud Engineering and Security allows him to conduct cloud investigations easily and quickly, identifying the root cause in a short period of time and providing an extensive report and recovery suggestions afterward. Moreover, Damian is an excellent team player and a pleasure to work with. He is always willing to go above and beyond to help his colleagues, and his positive attitude and friendly demeanor make him a valuable asset to any team. I must also mention that Damian set up a SIEM all by himself, even though at some point, before Damian had joined us, everyone started to believe this solution would not work for us. His attention to detail and ability to think outside the box were critical to the success of this project. Overall, I believe that Damian would be an excellent fit for any organization looking for a skilled and experienced Security Cloud Engineer. His passion for his work, combined with his strong technical skills and collaborative approach, make him an ideal candidate for any role he chooses to pursue. I am confident that he will excel in his future endeavors, and I wish him all the best in his pursuit of a career.

Cloud Security Engineer responsible for securing AWS cloud infrastructure and ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data. - Expertise in vulnerability management, conducting regular security assessments, and implementing remediation plans to mitigate potential risks. - Enhancing the Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system to proactively detect and respond to security incidents. - Implementing and managing Bot Management solutions to prevent malicious bot activity and protect web applications. - Managing and fine-tuning Web Application Firewall (WAF) to safeguard against common web-based attacks and unauthorised access. - Demonstrated ability to react swiftly to security incidents during on-call duty, investigating and containing threats to minimize impact. - Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to develop and enforce security policies and best practices. - Conducting regular security audits and assessments to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements. - Developing and delivering comprehensive security awareness training programs for employees to promote a security-conscious culture. - Staying up to date with the latest security trends, vulnerabilities, and industry best practices to continuously improve cloud security measures. I have a keen interest in offensive security and continually seek to understand how adversaries operate. To expand my knowledge in this area, I have obtained the PNPT certificate from TCM Security, which provided hands-on experience in practical network penetration testing. I've also started the OSCP training, scheduled for completion October 2023. By integrating offensive security insights into my defensive knowledge, I strive to create a robust security posture that anticipates and counters potential threats. Show less
