I design secure-by-design architectures for cloud-native, AI-driven, and distributed systems.
Focused on:
- Security Architecture
- Threat Modeling
- AI / LLM Security
- Service-to-Service Trust
- Software Supply Chain Security
Secured 60+ cloud-native and distributed systems through architecture reviews, attack path analysis, and threat modeling.
Built an ML-assisted DAST validation system reducing false positives by 80%.
- Trust boundaries and attack paths in distributed systems
- AI inference security (RAG, agents, tool execution)
- Identity-first architecture and workload trust
- Secure service-to-service communication (OAuth, mTLS)
- CI/CD and software supply chain security
Core belief:
Security failures happen at trust boundaries, not components.
🔗 https://github.com/khirawdhi/secure-inference-architecture-blueprint
Practical security architecture blueprint for AI inference systems.
Covers:
- Prompt injection
- Retrieval poisoning
- Tool abuse
- Data leakage
- Trust boundaries across inference pipelines
Core idea:
AI security is not a model problem.
It is an inference architecture problem.
