My Recent Accomplishments:

Current certifications other than CEH: CISA ISACA, CDPSE ISACA, COSO Internal Control COSO, ITIL Fundations. I have more than 15 years of experience working in cybersecurity-related fields – Cybersecurity Engineer, Head of Information Protection, IT Auditor.

What would not have been possible without CEH?

Using pentesting coordination as a new methodology to perform IT corporate audits.

How did CEH contribute to your career?

During my CEH preparation, it has been clear to me that no organization is safe and that the best approach to mitigate the risks is using the same hacking methods that the bad boys will use when they attack us. Ethical hacking is a continuous process.

During the pandemic, did your role become more challenging? If so, how?​

Ethical Hacking has proven to be effective to detect risks and threads to my organization during the pandemic, mainly those related to teleworking and other transformation initiatives carried out by my Company in the context of the covid-19 crisis.
