Summary
Alexander Barabanov is a Product Security Architect with a Ph.D. in Information Security, CISSP and CSSLP, currently shaping product security at Intel from Dublin. He brings deep applied experience in secure software development, having led security evaluations, standards work (including contributions to Russian GOST guidance), and academic courses for over a decade before transitioning to industry roles at Huawei, Baker Hughes and Intel. His background spans threat modeling, security testing, architecture and code review across big data, microservices and on-prem private cloud environments, and he has hands-on experience running certification projects and building assessment methodologies. A former associate professor and certification lead, he blends rigorous research and standardization experience with practical program delivery, which helps him bridge academic rigor and product security pragmatism. Unusually, he has both authored national-standard drafts on secure development and led dozens of real-world certification evaluations, giving him a rare combo of policy, teaching and operational security expertise.
