Background

About Michael Werner

As an Information Security Analyst with a background in software engineering, I bring a unique mix of technical troubleshooting, incident management, and security operations experience. I currently support key security initiatives—ranging from vulnerability assessments and phishing simulations to managing IDS/IPS, DLP systems, and security awareness training. My previous role at Rocket Mortgage gave me nearly a decade of hands-on software development and production support experience. That background sharpened my ability to respond quickly to incidents, understand system behavior, and work collaboratively across IT teams—skills that now enhance my approach to cybersecurity. Now, I’m focused on deepening my impact in the cybersecurity space. I hold certifications in AWS Solutions Architecture and CompTIA Security+, and I’m actively expanding my expertise in threat detection, compliance, and cloud security. I’m looking for opportunities where I can protect systems, reduce risk, and help organizations build strong, secure infrastructures.
