With a decade of rich experience in the ever-evolving realm of IT security, I, Muhammad Eissa, have developed a deep-seated expertise in cybersecurity, risk management, and IT auditing, particularly within the financial sector. My journey, beginning in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, has been marked by continuous growth and a commitment to excellence.
As an IT & Cybersecurity Auditor at the Central Bank of Egypt, I have been instrumental in safeguarding critical information systems, identifying and mitigating technological risks, and ensuring compliance with global security standards. My role involves conducting in-depth risk assessments, refining security infrastructures, and providing expert guidance.
Before this, my career saw me as a Cybersecurity Instructor, a role in which I passionately crafted and delivered targeted training initiatives, driving workforce advancement and skill acquisition in cybersecurity. This role was underpinned by my experience as a Senior Security Analyst with Liquid C2 MENA and earlier positions that honed my skills in network security and IT coordination.
My certifications, including completed and ongoing ones like CISSP, CISA, CRISC, and various Cisco and Microsoft certifications, reflect my commitment to staying at the forefront of cybersecurity knowledge. Volunteering for ISC2 Cybersecurity Exam Development and engaging in multiple professional development courses further demonstrate my dedication to the field.
On a personal note, I advocate for knowledge sharing, dedicating my time to educating aspiring cybersecurity professionals through social media and other platforms. This passion for mentorship is driven by my belief in the power of education and the need for continuous learning in our rapidly changing digital world.
With a vision to leave a lasting impact in the cybersecurity arena, I am continuously exploring new frontiers, eager to contribute to and shape the future of this vital sector.
