I spearheaded a 10-member team constituting of network infrastructure and information data services professionals. I mentored junior IT team members and personnel from other departments and facilitated professional development to maximize productivity. I managed Active Directory infrastructure on Windows Server 2008 R2 using PowerShell, Group Policy, and VBScript. I determined major vulnerabilities in intranet and internet networks, systems, and applications through ethical hacking. By leveraging in-depth skills, I assessed probable risks across departments for remediation. I also drafted reports by outlining security vulnerabilities for presentation to customers across 254 counties in Texas. Along with all of these activities, I led speaking engagements emphasizing security awareness and prevention for in-house teams and other agency representatives. Key Contributions: • Set up and rolled out a comprehensive security program for Texas counties to include social engineering, security awareness training, and penetration testing. • Slashed overhead and related expenditures by designing and implementing a custom storage area network and virtual infrastructure. • Ensured seamless transfer of existing physical infrastructure toward a virtual system with VMware Converter.• Served as an in-house HIPAA Security Officer to guarantee and enforce compliance with all requisite policies in conjunction with additional controls for employee health and benefits.
