Architecting secure, scalable systems and defending against cyber threats for over 20 years.
Specializing in zero-trust networks, cloud security, and secure DevOps practices.
I’m Adil, a Cyber Security–focused Systems Engineer with nearly 20 years of
experience securing enterprise infrastructures across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid
environments.
In recent years, my focus has transitioned to cloud and cloud-native security,
spanning public, private, and hybrid environments. I work extensively with cloud
security architecture, Kubernetes security, identity and access management (IAM),
SSO integrations, and secure cloud migrations, helping organizations modernize while
maintaining strong security posture.
With experience across multiple generations of technology, I bring a holistic,
security-first mindset, combining deep infrastructure knowledge with modern
cyber-security practices. If you’d like to explore specific technologies,
