About

Hi, I’m Douglas Luna, a Staff Security Engineer focused on Cloud security, DevSecOps, Kubernetes, and Platform Security.

I have worked on securing complex multi-account cloud environments, integrating DevSecOps practices into CI/CD pipelines, and hardening Kubernetes clusters at scale. My work has included architecting end-to-end security strategies designed to meet compliance requirements across Banking, Financial Services, Telecom, and Healthcare environments.

This blog is where I share practical notes on cloud security, platform security, automation, compliance, and the engineering decisions behind resilient systems.

You can find my technical certifications on Credly.
