About

I lead a Cyber Security Operations Center supporting clients across the Middle East and Africa. My work focuses on operational security and intelligence-led defence, built on extensive experience across government, consulting, and enterprise environments.

Professional Background

I've been involved in information security since I was 16, and it remains a field where you never stop learning.

Professionally, I spent 9 years working in cybersecurity within a government agency, then moved to the private sector with roles at a cybersecurity distributor and a Big Four consulting firm. Over the past 5 years, cyber intelligence has been my primary focus and has become my core area of expertise.

Current Focus

My work centers on Security Operations Centre (SOC) leadership and cyber intelligence operations. This includes open and closed source intelligence, threat monitoring, incident response, and advanced investigations.

I operate across OSINT, CYBINT, GEOINT, and due diligence, applying intelligence at strategic, tactical, and operational levels to support informed decision-making and effective risk mitigation.

Experience & Contributions

I've trained over 740 law enforcement officers and delivered cybersecurity and intelligence education to more than 52,000 students through online platforms.

I've also worked closely with government entities on OSINT programs and counterterrorism-related initiatives, contributing to intelligence-led security efforts at scale.

Professional Interests

My interests include malware analysis, building threat intelligence frameworks, and examining the relationship between geopolitics and cyber threats.

Understanding how global developments translate into cyber activity drives much of my work.
