Daniel Aviño is a Cloud Security Engineer with seven years’ experience designing, automating, and hardening cloud and endpoint security workflows from Granada, Spain. He progressed from intern to team lead at Wazuh, contributing notable open-source improvements to Wazuh’s Windows agent installer, deployment scripts, and documentation to streamline secure autodeployment and enrollment. At Wazuh he combined QA, CI/CD automation, and technical writing—bridging developer workflows with operational security and improving reproducibility for both Linux and Windows packaging. Now at JLL he focuses on cloud security at scale, drawing on hands-on experience with SIEM/XDR tooling and automation to reduce deployment friction and surface attack vectors. Peers describe him as a practical problem-solver who prefers fixing insecure defaults and making secure configurations the path of least resistance. His background in computer science from Universidad de Granada underpins a pragmatic, security-first engineering approach.
