Paul Jaramillo is a seasoned security leader with over 15 years in IT and more than a decade focused on incident response, currently directing Threat Hunting & Intelligence at Sophos. He combines hands-on offensive skills—such as breaking into a two-factor VPN as a pen tester—with deep forensic experience investigating global insider threats and removing nation-state adversaries from enterprise and government networks. Paul has led and scaled threat-hunting programs at Splunk and CrowdStrike, blending threat intelligence, malware analysis, and IDS/firewall expertise to measurably reduce enterprise risk. Known for being both highly technical and results-oriented, he routinely turns complex investigations into actionable defenses and stronger security posture. Based in Missouri, he pairs a pragmatic management background (BBA in MIS) with continued technical curiosity, having moved from field technician roles into strategic leadership across major security vendors.
