About Yassine

Are you looking for an expert capable of securing IT/OT industrial architectures and integrating cybersecurity from the design of your solutions?

An OT cybersecurity engineer certified ISO 27001 Lead Implementer, I work on critical industrial environments (IACS, energy infrastructures, transport) to structure risk management, strengthen communication architectures, and integrate Secure by Design into development cycles.

My expertise covers:

risk analysis (EBIOS RM, ISO 27005),
ISO 27001 and IEC 62443 compliance,
threat modeling (STRIDE, DFD, Microsoft TMT),
industrial protocol security (IEC 61850 / MMS, EtherCAT, SCADAPack, SCADA architectures based on Redis),
integration of Secure SDLC practices (SAST – Coverity, Squore, SCA – BDBA, vulnerability validation, CVSS scoring).

I support technical and product teams on Build-Time and Run-Time aspects (access control, input validation, segmentation, secure exchanges, traceability), with a pragmatic approach focused on attack surface reduction and operational resilience.

My added value: a dual understanding of development & industrial cybersecurity, allowing me to bridge the gap between technical architecture, regulatory requirements, and OT field constraints.
