Design and enforce conditional access policies to control access based on user identity, device health, location, and risk level. Support the implementation and optimization of SASE solutions to unify network and security services, including secure web gateways, CASB, and ZTNA. Utilize EDR solutions (e.g., CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint) to detect, investigate, and remediate endpoint threats. Collaborate with IT and development teams to integrate secure identity protocols into applications and infrastructure.
