Dharun Jackson is a Director of Cyber Engineering and technology leader with over a decade of experience building and scaling resilient, high-performing systems in complex enterprise environments. With a background spanning cloud computing, payments platforms, and large-scale distributed architectures, he brings a uniquely practical perspective to modern cybersecurity challenges. Dharun specializes in designing fault-tolerant, resilient systems that assume compromise and prioritize rapid detection, response, and recovery. His work focuses on advancing security through engineering—driving improvements in Mean Time to Respond (MTTR), automation, and architectural patterns that reduce blast radius and enable organizations to recover quickly from incidents. As a leader, Dharun has built and mentored high-performing engineering teams, fostering a culture of ownership, innovation, and continuous growth. He has led large-scale modernization efforts, introduced cloud-native capabilities, and driven the adoption of automated, scalable solutions that operate effectively in dynamic and evolving environments. Passionate about the human element of technology, Dharun believes that strong, empowered teams are the foundation of resilient systems. His approach combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution, helping organizations shift from prevention-focused security models to resilience-driven practices that better reflect today’s threat landscape. At Infosec World, Dharun could share real-world insights on how security, DevOps, and SRE disciplines converge to reduce impact, accelerate response, and build systems that are designed not just to defend—but to recover and adapt. These will be shared from working experience of doing these at a large scale fintech.
