Summary
Aaron Jewitt is a Principal Information Security Analyst with over 20 years of IT and cybersecurity experience who leverages a rare dual perspective—12 years on the NSA red team and extensive blue team leadership—to design detections and threat-hunting capabilities that stop adversaries in real time. Based in the Frankfurt Rhine-Main area, he builds and tunes Elastic SIEM detections and SOAR playbooks for a multi-cloud global SaaS footprint spanning 50+ regions, translating attacker TTPs into actionable telemetry. He has led teams of up to 50 engineers across military, government, and commercial environments, created host-level instrumentation and big-data analytics pipelines, and reduced MTTR through automated triage and enrichment. Aaron holds an MS in Cybersecurity, a BS in Computer Science, eight GIAC certifications, is fluent in English and German, and brings hands-on offensive tradecraft to defensive engineering in ways that consistently surface subtle adversary access patterns.
