• Support senior leaders in advising CNR stakeholders on integrating cybersecurity risk management into operational resilience, capital programs, plant modernization, emergency preparedness, and sustainability initiatives.
• Manage CNR cybersecurity transformation workstreams focused on secure IT/OT convergence, network segmentation, internal network security monitoring, threat detection modernization, cyber resilience, and identity and access management for critical industrial infrastructure.
• Facilitate CNR-specific threat modeling, incident response, and recovery-readiness activities for risks such as ransomware, nation-state activity, supply chain compromise, insecure remote access, and attacks affecting chemical plants, refineries, pipelines, or mining operations.
• Work with architects, ecosystem partners, and technology vendors to develop scalable cybersecurity solutions that enable secure OT modernization, automation, cloud adoption, connected field devices, and digital supply chain services without compromising operational safety or continuity.
• Contribute CNR cybersecurity expertise to client engagements, proposals, and internal forums.
