 D. Operational Oversight &amp; Risk Stewardship
 
 
 
 You will guide firewall governance, rule-quality assessments, change reviews, policy enforcement, and exposure reduction.
 
 
 You will collaborate closely with SOC, cloud teams, and infrastructure groups to ensure all network events are monitored and responded to effectively.
 
 
 
 E. Technology Portfolio Direction &amp; Innovation
 
 
 
 You will keep the organisation ahead by evaluating and recommending new approaches such as SASE, zero-trust access, micro-segmentation, encrypted traffic inspection, and advanced network analytics.
