Design Security That Works in the Real World

Design Security That Works in the Real World

Strategy documents and framework mappings are necessary, but they are not architecture. Architecture is the translation of security intent into implementable design, the detailed specification of how components interact, data flows, controls apply, and systems integrate. It is the bridge between what you want to achieve and how you will actually achieve it.

Implementable Security Architecture

Drawing on extensive experience designing and implementing security architectures at enterprise scale, I work with your teams to develop detailed, implementable designs that address your specific requirements, integrate with your existing environment, and remain practical within your constraints.

Image about zero trust architecture design

Zero Trust Architecture Design

Detailed specifications needed to implement Zero Trust in your environment. Target state architecture, integration patterns for existing systems, migration approaches from current state, and technical specifications for identity, device, network, workload, and data domains.

Image about security reference architecture

Security Reference Architecture

Foundational documents that guide security decisions across the organization: approved technology patterns, integration standards, security control requirements by data classification, and exception management processes. Enable consistent security decisions without requiring central security team involvement in every project.

Image about ai security architecture

AI Security Architecture

Define how AI systems integrate with enterprise security controls, how agent behavior is governed and monitored, how data access is controlled and audited, and how human oversight is maintained. Enable safe, governed AI deployment without restricting AI capability.

Image about autonomous defense architecture

Autonomous Defense Architecture

Combine Zero Trust and Agentic AI for security that operates at machine speed. Specify how Zero Trust telemetry feeds AI analysis engines, how policy engines govern automated responses, where human approval thresholds apply, and how the system learns and improves over time.

What Makes This Architecture Different

Most architecture work produces beautiful diagrams of beautiful components that don't talk to each other. Zero Trust architecture that ignores integration is just a collection of products. Integration is the architecture.

  • Horizontal integration by design: Architecture decisions start with how each component integrates with everything else. When the whole layer moves as one, Zero Trust actually works.
  • Policy enforcement coherence: The goal is unified policy enforcement across identity, network, and endpoint. One policy decision, enforced everywhere, simultaneously.
  • Non-destructive transformation: Integration patterns that enable safe onboarding and migration. The architecture accommodates your existing estate while progressively improving integration.
  • AI-ready by default: Architectures designed so the same Zero Trust principles extend to AI workloads from day one.
  • Fewer products, more integration: Before adding a new product, evaluate whether better integration of existing products would achieve the same outcome.
  • Phased migration plans with milestones and go/no-go criteria
