The work, and the practice around it.

01.1 — Story

Background

Consulting and delivery across identity, data, and AI.

I joined Erasmith Technologies in 2015 as a practice consultant. Over time the role grew to include the cybersecurity practice. I still do the hands-on work: plugins, vault configuration, CyberArk PAM, Privilege Cloud, EPM, SAML, MFA, and API automation.

Dec 2015 – present

Cybersecurity business head

Practice leadership · CyberArk consultant

At Erasmith I help with the cybersecurity practice: which technologies and partners to bring in, how delivery is staffed, and how the relationship holds after go-live. I also still carry CyberArk PAM and IAM work through to sustainment. That includes POCs, RFPs, requirements, solution design, plugin development, and API automation.

Implemented monitoring and discovery (TrueSight, ADDM) for estates including NI Dubai, AP Treasury, and TechM. That is where I learned to map messy infrastructure before I started vaulting it.
