Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNikolaos Papadopoulos is a cybersecurity operations and architecture professional with eight years of hands-on experience bridging software development, digital security research, and IT support. Trained as a Security Management Engineer (M.Sc.) and an ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor, he combines formal security governance with practical expertise in PHP, C++, SQL, Wireshark and Matlab. He has moved from building and supporting e‑commerce platforms and web services to leading R&D in digital security and now drives cybersecurity architecture at a major bank. Comfortable across low-level packet analysis and higher-level application integrations, he brings a developer’s pragmatism to threat detection and secure system design. A physicist-minded machine learning researcher by inclination, he often applies analytical modeling to security problems rather than treating them as purely operational tasks. Based in Athens, he is known for translating complex technical controls into auditable, production-ready solutions.
