Casey Cresswell

CISSP-certified Cyber Security Engineer — Privileged Access Management, Zero Trust, and accreditation-ready architectures for federal and defense CIS.

Overview

CISSP (ISC²), 2025

I work on cyber stuff.

I enjoy working on zero trust stuff.

I’m also developing a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) project aimed at AI-driven security analysis and evidence generation. Details and a live demo will be added once the project is ready for public release.

Focus Areas

  • Designing and hardening Zero-Trust and Privileged Access Management architectures across hybrid-cloud and on-prem CIS environments.
  • Producing accreditation evidence for FISMA Moderate/High and DoD DISA SRG IL4/IL5 systems.
  • Leading enterprise vulnerability management and developing custom remediation strategies for complex findings.
  • Using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Ansible, GitHub Actions) to make security controls repeatable and auditable.

Projects

My current Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) security project will be linked here once the public demo is ready. The project focuses on using AI to interpret, contextualize, and help generate accreditation evidence across complex CIS environments.
