Cybersecurity & AI Architect | M.S. Cybersecurity | B.A. Economics (Minor in Cybersecurity) | Advanced Certificate in Cybersecurity | Driving Risk Reduction, Zero Trust, Cloud Security, IR, and Agentic AI Innovation

Introduction
I’m Jibril Anifowoshe, a Cybersecurity Engineer, Architect, and AI Strategist with over nine years of experience designing secure ecosystems, leading cross-functional teams, and driving enterprise resilience. My work has delivered more than $900 million in measurable risk reduction across Fortune 500 companies, healthcare systems, and financial institutions.
I bring together cybersecurity, AI, and enterprise strategy to build defensible architectures, intelligent automation, and governance frameworks that transform security from a technical function into a strategic enabler of innovation and trust.
My Expertise
Cybersecurity Architecture and Strategy
I design resilient, adaptive security architectures that unify business strategy with technical precision. My work integrates Zero Trust principles, NIST SP 800-207, and MITRE ATT&CK across cloud-native and identity-centric environments. Each design is built to scale securely while enabling agility, performance, and compliance.
Cloud, Infrastructure, and Automation
I engineer multi-cloud environments across AWS and Azure that are secure by default and automated by design. Using Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code, I enforce consistent policy, eliminate configuration drift, and enable continuous compliance. My mini IaC series demonstrates how automation can simplify complex control implementation into elegant, repeatable deployments.
AI Security and Intelligent Automation
I developed Agentic AI, a privacy-first local LLM platform showcasing secure AI deployment and responsible model governance. My focus extends to AI/ML threat modeling, OWASP GenAI Top 10, and AI-VSS frameworks, leveraging artificial intelligence not just as a system to protect, but as a force multiplier for detection, defense, and compliance automation.
Threat Modeling and Secure Design
I lead enterprise-wide threat modeling and architecture reviews using STRIDE, PASTA, and MITRE ATT&CK. These frameworks have driven a 60% reduction in high-risk findings and delivered over $900M in risk mitigation. I embed secure-by-design practices directly into product engineering, transforming security into an integral part of innovation.
Incident Response and Resilience Engineering
I build intelligence-driven detection and response programs grounded in NIST 800-61, the Cyber Kill Chain, and MITRE ATT&CK. Through automation, AI-assisted triage, and real-time analytics, I help organizations shift from reactive response to proactive resilience, improving containment, coordination, and executive visibility during critical events.
Identity, Access, and Trust Fabric
I architect and integrate federated IAM ecosystems unifying SSO, MFA, and PAM across distributed infrastructures. By applying Zero Trust authentication and continuous verification, I strengthen access control while maintaining performance, scalability, and user experience.
Governance, Risk, and Compliance Leadership
I translate frameworks such as NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, NYDFS, HIPAA, and PCI DSS into actionable enterprise controls. My leadership in compliance transformation has closed critical control gaps, improved certification readiness, and elevated enterprise assurance maturity.
Strategic and Executive Enablement
I advise leadership teams on cyber investment strategy, post-acquisition security integration, and enterprise risk quantification. By aligning cybersecurity outcomes with business, regulatory, and shareholder objectives, I ensure every decision reinforces operational stability and long-term enterprise value.
