Implemented robust access control measures: Developed and deployed a multi-factor authentication (MFA) system, reducing unauthorised access attempts by 30% within the first quarter. This involved integrating MFA with existing systems and educating clinicians on best practices for password management and security awareness.

Enhanced data encryption protocols: Upgraded the system's encryption algorithms to AES-256, ensuring all patient data is protected with industry-standard encryption. This involved a thorough risk assessment to identify vulnerabilities and a phased rollout plan to minimise disruption to clinicians' workflow. The upgrade resulted in a 25% increase in data encryption speed.

Developed and delivered comprehensive security awareness training: Created and delivered a comprehensive training program for clinicians on uk compliance, data security best practices, and phishing awareness. Post-training assessments showed a 40% improvement in employee knowledge of security protocols. This initiative resulted in a 15% reduction in reported phishing attempts.

I am proficient in A Cyber Risk working on a project like the MModal secure documentation system requires a diverse skillset encompassing risk assessment and management using methodologies like NIST RMF and ISO 27005, along with threat modelling and vulnerability analysis, and proficiency in various security frameworks and standards such as NIST CSF, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and HITRUST. Essential capabilities include incident response and security operations SIEM, SOAR, threat hunting, vulnerability management scanning, testing, and remediation, and robust data security and privacy measures (DLP, encryption, data masking). Furthermore, expertise in security technologies (firewalls, IDS/IPS, EDR, IAM, MFA), cloud security (if applicable), security awareness training, and strong communication, project management, and analytical skills, along with knowledge of healthcare IT systems and data standards, are crucial for success. I also possess strong analytical, communication, and leadership skills, enabling me to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams and communicate complex technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences.
