#CloudWhistler

I’m Ali Sohail, a Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps Lead with over a decade securing Linux, on-prem network, and cloud environments for enterprises and MSPs. I’ve just relaunched my own IT MSP while balancing end-of-life caregiving for my mother, and I thrive on turning complex security challenges into clear, actionable steps.

As an official Red Hat training partner and hands-on mentor, I build workshops that empower junior defenders to level up their skills. This will be my first public talk, and I’m excited to share practical, no-nonsense tips you can implement first thing Monday morning.

Across 15 minutes I will guide you through securing both on-prem networks and cloud environments with straightforward, actionable tips. By unpacking a real-world security-group misconfiguration I’ll show how fundamental network-segmentation principles translate from your LAN to AWS or Azure and deliver a compact checklist you can implement immediately.
