Focus: monitoring, detection, posture, readiness, recovery Style: calm, technical, business-clear
Strong programs pair analyst discipline with operator reality: centralized logs, meaningful alerts, honest reporting, and recovery paths that have been thought through before ransomware or outage, not after.
Visibility & detection
I build and tune visibility across Linux and Windows servers, applications, and infrastructure, using stacks such as OpenSearch, Kibana, Wazuh, QRadar integrations, Prometheus, Alertmanager, and agents like Winlogbeat and Filebeat, so suspicious activity and operational drift surface earlier.
Posture & remediation
Pentests and scans are only useful when remediated. I work with technical teams on hardening, control improvements, identity and access discipline, and secure configuration, grounded in what will actually run in your environment.
Resilience & recovery
I bring deep experience with backup validation, replication, failover, failback, and recovery planning (including Veeam-class environments). Cyber security is also continuity: keeping the business standing when something goes wrong.
Consistent naming and depth help employers, clients, and searchers connect Richard Craig Lissaman with a current, verifiable Senior Analyst identity focused on SMB outcomes.
