Cisco Certified Support Technician (CCST) and IBM AI Fundamentals professional dedicated to engineering network resilience. I specialize in bridging the gap between high-speed AI automation and foundational network architecture. Through my publication, 'The Architect’s Shield,' I provide actionable insights on vulnerability discovery, port hardening, and the implementation of AI in defensive security. My goal is to move beyond automated scans to deliver human-verified, enterprise-grade security logic.
