Short profile
Malik Kimani Senior Enterprise Cybersecurity Architect
I turn abstract IT risks into practical technical architectures. Whether systems run in the cloud or on premises, I focus on keeping business-critical services secure in day-to-day use, not just on paper.
“Security should not get in the way of day-to-day operations, but gaps in controls can put them at risk. My job is to strike that balance in architecture and code.”

M.Sc. IT Security, TU Darmstadt
Enterprise Security Architecture
I design Zero Trust security architectures for cloud and hybrid environments. Using infrastructure as code with Terraform, I make security baselines repeatable and automate their deployment with the necessary safeguards.
Threat Defense & Incident Response
When prevention is not enough, response time matters. I build monitoring systems that help distinguish genuine attacks from routine activity. When an incident occurs, I lead the technical containment with a clear plan and a calm approach.
Compliance & Risk Management
I translate requirements from NIS-2 and standards such as ISO 27001 into concrete technical controls. This helps teams prepare for audits while keeping those controls practical for everyday development.
