Sean Heide, Technical Research Director at Cloud Security Alliance, has joined the BIZDEVOPS Blog on DEVOPSdigest.

Heide spent his early years as an Expeditionary Warfare Navy Intelligence analyst before moving into cyber security. His current research with CSA focuses on Enterprise Architecture and security policy adjustment, Top Threats identifications, and helping lead an initiative for CISOs and security leaders to bridge the gap on critical areas of enterprise. He graduated from Colorado State University with a degree in Information Technology and went on to receive his Masters of Science in Information Technology Management and Cyber Security from the same institution. In his free time, Sean can be found trying to breach his home lab, learning new security concepts, or playing video games.
