    End-to-end security coverage.

    Organized by where security matters in the software delivery lifecycle โ€” not just a list of tools I've touched.

    Secure Architecture & Threat Modeling
    DESIGN PHASE

    Threat modeling using STRIDE and MITRE ATT&CK frameworks. Data flow analysis, trust boundary mapping, and abuse case development to identify design-level vulnerabilities before code is written.

    Pipeline Security (SAST/DAST/SCA)
    BUILD & TEST PHASE

    Security scanning embedded directly into CI/CD workflows with automated quality gates. Static analysis for code vulnerabilities, dependency scanning for supply chain risk, and dynamic testing against running applications.

    Cloud Security & Identity
    DEPLOY PHASE

    Least-privilege IAM policy design, service account governance, network segmentation, and cloud misconfiguration detection. Multi-cloud security posture management across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

    Detection & Response Engineering
    MONITOR PHASE

    Detection-as-code workflows with correlation rules mapped to MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Log pipeline architecture, alert tuning to reduce noise, and automated response playbooks using SOAR platforms.

    Container & Kubernetes Security
    RUNTIME PHASE

    Securing containerized workloads from build to runtime โ€” image vulnerability scanning, RBAC enforcement, network policy implementation, pod security standards, and runtime anomaly detection.
