Extensive experience evaluating security control effectiveness and translating complex data into technical requirements to build automated solutions that satisfy Payment Card Industry (PCI) and Service Organization Control 2 (SOC 2) audit scrutiny. Track record of delivering real‑time dashboards and automated reporting that transform raw system data into an executive‑level source of truth for continuous risk oversight. Even Better If...
