Greetings from Sasha
Hiddy ho! I’m Natasha, a seasoned Cyber Security pro with a knack for keeping the digital world safe. I’ve got loads of experience in cyber threat intelligence, incident response, and making sure businesses stay ahead of the game when it comes to cyber risks.
I’m all about diving deep into the nitty-gritty details to solve problems and keep things running smoothly. Plus, I’m a pro at communicating with all sorts of folks, whether it’s chatting with the Canadian Federal Government, teaming up with global Law Enforcement agencies, or working alongside Canadian financial institutions.
I’m your go-to gal for all things cyber-related, offering up strategic advice on everything from attack mitigation to incident response and threat management practices. And when it comes to security incident management and threat management, I’ve got some killer strategic frameworks up my sleeve.
So, if you’re looking for someone to help navigate the wild world of cybersecurity with a blend of expertise and a dash of charm, look no further! Let’s team up and make the internet a safer place, one cyber threat at a time.
