Background

About Troy Shields

I’m a Senior Security Architect with 9+ years of experience designing cloud security frameworks, securing SaaS platforms, and guiding enterprise digital transformations. I specialize in aligning security architecture with AWS, Azure, and Oracle ERP Cloud environments using CIS, NIST, and SOC 2 standards. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across business and technical teams to build scalable, resilient, and compliant cloud and SaaS ecosystems. Lately, my work has expanded into the intersection of cloud security, SaaS security, and AI systems, including securing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, Agent-to-Agent (A2A) identity frameworks, and strengthening SSPM and CSPM practices. I’m passionate about helping organizations scale securely and prepare for the next generation of AI-driven architectures.
