Zachary Van Iderstine

DevOPS System Administrator

I'm a DevOps System Administrator with a passion for cloud security and automation. With over 5 years of experience in the tech industry, I've honed my skills in designing and managing secure, scalable infrastructure.
I focus on cloud security, automation, and software development, and lately I've been diving into how physical security concepts can be applied to cloud environments. Along with how AI is impacting the security landscape and how to best leverage it for defensive purposes.
I thrive on solving complex problems and am always eager to learn new technologies and methodologies to enhance my expertise.
