Summary
Blanca Galvan is a multilingual Cyber Security Manager with eight years of hands-on experience designing and operationalizing security programs across SOC operations, threat hunting, and governance. She combines a strong computer science and secure software engineering background (MS, PhD candidate) with practical tool deployments and policy-driven roadmaps to strengthen organizational resilience. Blanca pairs technical fluency in Python, Java and Linux with working knowledge of low-level languages and databases, enabling both threat analysis and secure system implementation. Her skill set is amplified by certifications in phishing, security awareness, insider threat and cyber threat intelligence, and by a history of delivering onsite training to raise security maturity. Unusually for a security leader, she brings professional graphic design and bilingual communications (English, Spanish, French) to translate technical risk into clear, persuasive stakeholder-facing materials. Based in El Paso, she actively drives R&D to evolve defensive capabilities and align cybersecurity initiatives with long-term business objectives.
