• Embed security testing, container scanning, and secrets management (AWS Secrets Manager) directly into CI/CD pipelines, creating automated evidence‑collection workflows for continuous SOC 2 and HITRUST audit readiness.

• Develop custom detection rules using AWS Cloud Trail, Amazon Cloud Watch telemetry, and enterprise SIEM tool to monitor system activities to detect and respond to threats and incidents.
