I secure AWS for APRA-regulated Australia

I'm a platform engineer with 15+ years building and securing data systems at enterprise scale — Kafka, Hadoop and CDP in production, including at MNC scale.

I went deep on AWS Security — now AWS Certified Solutions Architect (Associate) and AWS Certified Security (Specialty) — and specialised in the part almost no individual practitioner owns: Australian financial-services compliance on AWS — APRA CPS 234, CPS 230, and the Essential Eight.

Securing data at that scale taught me exactly what APRA actually cares about. AiOpsOne is where I publish that work in the open: practitioner guides, open-source compliance tooling, and tools that turn AWS security findings into evidence a board can use.

AWS Security & compliance

APRA CPS 234 / CPS 230 and Essential Eight mapped to real AWS controls — Config, IAM, GuardDuty, Security Hub — and to open-source tooling.

Enterprise data platforms

15+ years running and securing Kafka, Hadoop and CDP at scale. The free Big Data tools here are still live — that's the bridge, not baggage. See the tools →
