Cybersecurity Assessment and Zero Trust Implementation
Strengthening enterprise security posture in a hybrid environment
Client / Context:
A mid-sized consulting firm with 200+ employees working in a hybrid (remote + office) setup.
Problem:
The firm had inconsistent access control policies, unsecured endpoints, and growing exposure to phishing and credential-based attacks.
Solution:
I performed a full cybersecurity audit, then led a Zero Trust architecture rollout. Using Azure AD and Microsoft Endpoint Manager, I enforced conditional access policies, MFA, and device compliance. I also conducted internal training on security best practices.
Impact / Results:
Increased Microsoft Secure Score from 63% to 92%
Passed third-party audit with no critical findings
Company-wide reduction in phishing success rate after employee training
Tech Stack: Azure AD, Intune, Microsoft 365, Defender for Endpoint, PowerShell
