Ayman Haddad

Ayman Haddad
Ayman earned a B.Eng. in Computer Engineering from the American University of Beirut and a master’s in Information Security from Royal Holloway, University of London. He began in network defense, then specialized in secure architectures for SaaS, working closely with developers to keep security from becoming a blocker. He writes about identity, least privilege, secrets management, and practical threat modeling that isn’t a two-hour meeting no one understands. Ayman coaches startups through their first security roadmaps, speaks at privacy events, and contributes snippets that make secure defaults the default. He plays the oud on quiet evenings, practices mindfulness, and takes long waterfront walks that double as thinking time.
