Cloud and infrastructure security
Implemented Wiz CSPM for AWS visibility, aligned cloud security work with CIS benchmarks and compliance needs, and helped harden enterprise infrastructure during Fortinet modernization efforts.
About
I'm Jack Smith, a cybersecurity engineer focused on cloud security, network security, endpoint protection, automation, and secure infrastructure design. I like security work that has to survive contact with production: clear controls, measurable outcomes, and tools that engineers can actually use.
Experience
Implemented Wiz CSPM for AWS visibility, aligned cloud security work with CIS benchmarks and compliance needs, and helped harden enterprise infrastructure during Fortinet modernization efforts.
Led major security platform deployments and migrations, including NAC coverage for more than 13,000 devices and endpoint protection rollout across more than 8,000 systems.
Built automation workflows for incident triage, enrichment, and response so teams could move faster without losing discipline or context.
Approach
I start with how identity, data, network paths, and failure modes actually behave before prescribing controls.
Security tooling should meet engineers where they work, with feedback loops that make secure decisions easier.
My project work spans embedded C, Flutter, Swift, AWS, Flask, PostgreSQL, Python, and security automation.
Good security work is observable, auditable, and repeatable enough for the next person to trust it.
