Intrusion & Application Security Team Leader #

My role as a team leader is to promote the Intrusion & Application Security services that we provide. I advise our clients to efficiently plan security assessments. They are guided through the different tests and audits that can be leveraged to increase the security posture for different scopes, from a single application to a whole company.

I am surrounded by a team of passionate and skilled consultants who are fully dedicated to the activities of our department. We developed together a vision that encompasses both realistic penetration testing (also known as “offensive”), red teaming and in-depth application security consultancy services.

Business development and involvement

I created our offering with a structured catalog of services that allows us to prepare and deliver in a standardized manner. I ensure that the content and the services that we propose are innovative, relevant and cost efficient. Based on this model, all the departments now have a streamlined catalog at the company level.

In charge of the business development, team management, projects organization and quality control of the delivery, I am also involved in presales and close follow-up of opportunities.

Even if my work is currently mainly focused on team and project management, I regularly take part in the delivery. Indeed, I am a certified penetration tester owning the GIAC GPEN certification.

Innovation and tooling

My implication in the company extends beyond my team as I bring ideas and tools to increase the overall productivity. I created a tool to automate the creation of the offers. It gathers the information from different systems and combine them to create a ready-to-send proposal.

I also built a tool used by the teams to schedule the upcoming projects, calculate the teams’ occupancy and get a forecast of the revenues. It gives a clear view of the staff planned activities while being easy to use as it retrieves the information seamlessly from consultants’ Outlook calendars.
