Lucian Petrus Email & Phone Number

I'm Lucian and I’m a network enthusiast, cybersecurity aficionado, and cloud architecture geek — basically, if it’s about securing and optimizing the digital world (more specifically "THE NETWORK"), I’m all in.I'm diving deep on a day-to-day basis into network management and design challenges, while mainly working with Fortinet, Cisco and Meraki infrastructures for top-tier companies across the EMEA, Americas and APAC.I’m part and lead of multiple projects, revolving around SD-WAN+ architecture design and implementation, LAN optimization and security posture reinforcement, but also DC switching.I also have a special place in my heart for wireless infrastructure (yes, I find excitement in Wi-Fi...)Lately, I have been specializing on big Oil & Gas companies networks, ensuring both OT and IT environments run as smoothly as possible.Outside my 9-to-5 (which is often a 9-to-8) I take on freelance coding projects that solve real-world problems for small to mid-sized businesses and start-ups. My goal? Bridging the gap between old-school processes and cutting-edge technology with scalable solutions that stand the test of time (and tech trends).When I’m not knee-deep in network diagrams or writing scripts, I’m usually outdoors enjoying my other passion—fishing! (You'd be surprised how much patience both fishing and network troubleshooting require.) I’m also a huge fan of skiing, golf, and football. In the future, I wish to keep learning with/from brilliant people, collaborate with companies across the globe, and do my part in securing the digital frontier. Basically, if there’s a cybersecurity challenge on the horizon, I’m ready to tackle it.And yes, this bio will be continued… but only because there’s always more to come. 😊Technologies I Speak Fluently:-Cisco CLI, Fortinet CLI (GUI too...), Linux, Ubuntu, Python, CUCM, CUCX, CME (VoIP)-Additional: C++, C#, R, Angular.js, Express.js, Java, jQuery, MySQL, ABAPDeployed Solutions:-Cisco Firewalls, iOS | iOS XE C2960/C3850/C9200/C9300/Nexus switches, ISR 2911-4451 routers, Meraki-FortiGates 40F-to-201F, FortiSwitches, FMG, FAZ, EMS, FNAC, (You name it, I’ve probably deployed it.)Daily Skillset: team leadership, routing and switching, IPS detection, ethical hacking, software design and development, cryptography (No, I don’t use it to crack vaults, promise.)
