Summary
Michael Butt is a Principal Infrastructure Engineer with 11 years of experience building and securing mixed Windows/Linux cloud and on-prem environments, specializing in infrastructure-as-code and automated, resilient deployments. He led adversary-emulation infrastructure at MITRE for ATT&CK Evaluations, designing secure detonation and telemetry-rich environments across Azure and AWS. Comfortable tracing problems end-to-end from application code to systems, he combines software development roots with DevOps and systems administration to deliver reliable, scalable, and auditable security tooling.

He favors pragmatic, reproducible solutions that empower security teams to validate defenses, and his background includes uncommon depth in both CTI standards (STIX/TAXII) and large-scale telemetry environments.
