Background

About Kevin Murray

Security Engineer | DevOps Engineer | Systems Administrator I am a security-minded engineer with 15+ years of experience hardening, automating, and operating mixed Linux/Windows environments across healthcare, federal, and enterprise sectors. My expertise spans cloud security, DevOps, vulnerability management, and compliance — with proven success ensuring adherence to FedRAMP, HIPAA, and NIST 800-53 standards. I specialize in building secure and scalable infrastructures, integrating CI/CD pipelines with SAST/DAST security checks, and implementing IAM/Zero Trust frameworks to reduce risk and strengthen enterprise defenses. Known for closing compliance gaps, I’ve consistently reduced vulnerability backlogs, improved remediation timelines, and maintained zero critical audit findings. Key strengths include: Cloud & DevOps (AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, GitHub Actions) Security & Compliance (SIEM/SOAR, Nessus, Qualys, Splunk, Zero Trust, SAST/DAST) Systems Administration (Linux, Windows Server, VMware, AD/Entra ID, O365) Automation & Scripting (Python, Bash, PowerShell, SQL, REST APIs) Ops Readiness (DR/BCP, penetration testing, patching, audit evidence collection)
