It Support Specialist
CurrentIn my role as an IT support specialist, I've garnered extensive experience in maintaining the first line of defense in our company by ensuring our workstations and servers have the necessary software and configurations to protect against threats. I actively maintain the firewall rules on our servers in AWS and our office network, ensuring they are configured to mitigate risks and defend against potential threats. I excel in crafting and implementing robust security policies and controls to safeguard company assets and keep in compliance with local laws and regulations. I actively monitor security dashboards such as BitDefender and Meraki Security Center, swiftly responding to incidents and proactively identifying potential threats. My skill set includes scripting in PowerShell, Bash, and Python, enabling me to automate critical aspects of security protocols/my job. I'm adept at overseeing database, server, and file backups, executing seamless restoration procedures when necessary. Beyond reactive measures, I play a pivotal role in evaluating and testing new software solutions, contributing to the continuous enhancement of our security infrastructure.
