Top SchoolKarl Dominguez is a cybersecurity leader with 11 years of hands-on and managerial experience in incident response, SOC operations, malware analysis, and threat hunting across global firms like EY and IBM. He built EY GDS’s Incident Response capability and established Manila as a global IR hub while managing a 70-person competency and steering SOC maturity and continuous improvement. A practitioner at heart, Karl still leads critical incident investigations and digital forensics work, and earlier in his career developed machine-vision and ad-fraud detection systems and automated malware detection tooling. He blends deep technical expertise—from reverse engineering and YARA rule creation to SIEM integration—with talent development, hiring, and client-facing consulting. Based in Central Luzon, Philippines, he pairs an unusual background in electrical engineering and Japanese studies with a track record of turning complex threat research into operational playbooks and measurable SOC outcomes.
