Enrique Gallardo
Last position:
Security Architect at Capgemini
I implemented a Zero-Trust architecture for robust, military-grade maritime container mini data centers based on VMware & Tanzu to support containerized GIS workloads for ground forces. The main focus was on securing communications, workload protection, and data access in contested electronic battle environments affected by jamming, interception, signal manipulation, and constantly changing operational conditions. I designed and architected use cases so that every element of workload, identity, and system could continue to operate independently and securely even in degraded or disrupted scenarios. In parallel, I defined the enterprise and solution security architecture with LeanIX, Bizzdesign, and HOPEX as enterprise architecture, repository, and governance platforms to maintain architecture inventory, relationships, traceability, target pictures, and security governance in complex environments. For the architectural designs, I used Sparx Enterprise Architect to describe formal architecture views, interfaces, trust boundaries, and system architecture in both IT and OT environments. IriusRisk was used for threat modeling of the solution to identify architecture-driven risks, derive security requirements, and detect countermeasures and design gaps directly from the solution models. Risk and compliance management was supported with Archer. Architecture decisions, control gaps, and operational risks were translated into controlled governance and auditable compliance measures. For documentation, collaboration, and visual design, I used Confluence to maintain Architecture Decision Records, Security Blueprints, and workflows. I used Lucidchart and draw.io to create design artifacts tailored to stakeholders. I also defined OT security concepts with support from electrical and mechanical engineers in the areas of oil, vehicle onboard systems, rail, power plants, pharma, gas turbines, and nuclear technology. I created the end-to-end OT security strategy, starting with global policy, developed into standards and procedures, and finally aligned with Bell-LaPadula, Purdue Model, SABSA, TOGAF ADM, CENELEC 50701, IEC 62443, and NIST standards. In addition, I worked with engineering team leads to identify critical KBP assets and place them under protective measures that segmented SCADA, PLC, and HMI assets. I drove collaboration between Security, IT, and OT teams to create standardized workflows and use cases for the OT security solution catalog, while integrating Defense-in-Depth and Zero-Trust principles into operational environments. A key part of my work was integrating multidisciplinary engineering, security, and operations stakeholders into a unified security blueprinting strategy and ensuring that architecture, threat modeling, governance, and documentation were technically strong and operationally practical.

About the technology
What DLP does
Data Loss Prevention protects sensitive data from leaving your control in the wrong way. It watches for confidential content in email, endpoints, cloud apps, and file transfers, then blocks, warns, or logs the action. Strong DLP work keeps business data usable without making daily work slow.
Typical use cases
- Stop accidental sharing of customer, contract, or payroll data
- Control copy, paste, upload, print, and forwarding behavior
- Protect data in Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and cloud storage
- Support incident review and policy reporting
Core skills
Good specialists understand content classification, policy design, and data flow mapping. They know how to reduce false alerts, align rules with business teams, and keep security controls practical. Experience with endpoint control, email security, and cloud access patterns matters more than theory.
Ecosystem and tools
DLP often sits beside Microsoft Purview DLP, Symantec DLP, Trellix DLP, endpoint protection, and CASB or SSE controls. It also depends on directory services, identity rules, and secure email or device management. The best specialists can work across these layers without breaking normal user work.
When to bring help
Companies usually need freelance expertise when DLP projects stall, policies create too many alerts, or new cloud tools need fresh controls. This is common in regulated sectors, shared-service teams, and mixed on-site and remote setups in Germany. Clear English and German communication is often useful when teams span countries.
What strong experts deliver
A strong DLP professional starts with data discovery and risk review, then turns that into policies that can actually run. They document exceptions, testing steps, and response paths so the team can maintain the setup. They also know when to tighten a rule and when to reshape the process instead of blocking users.
Frequently asked questions
Key details about Data Loss Prevention, drawn from the questions we get asked most.
Data Loss Prevention is used to detect and control sensitive information as it moves through email, endpoints, cloud apps, and file sharing tools. Companies use it to stop accidental leaks, reduce policy violations, and keep regulated data inside approved channels. It is most useful when data needs protection without fully stopping normal collaboration.
DLP focuses on the content of the data and the action being taken, such as upload, copy, share, or print. CASB and SSE look more at cloud access and traffic control, while endpoint protection is broader and covers device risk and malware. In many environments these controls work together, but DLP is the layer that decides whether sensitive content can move.
Many buyers look for Data Loss Prevention specialists who know Microsoft Purview DLP, Symantec DLP, or Trellix DLP. The right choice depends on the company’s mail, endpoint, and cloud stack. A good freelancer can usually adapt policy design and tuning skills across these products.
A strong Data Loss Prevention specialist should also understand identity, endpoint management, cloud apps, email security, and content classification. They often need to read logs, explain policy choices to business teams, and adjust rules based on user behavior. Basic knowledge of compliance and data handling processes is also important.
A small policy review may need only a specialist who has tuned similar rules before. A full rollout across endpoints, email, and cloud services needs someone who has handled discovery, testing, exception handling, and support after go-live. The more data sources and business units involved, the more important hands-on delivery becomes.
Yes, many DLP projects can be done remotely if the specialist has secure access to logs, policy consoles, and stakeholder meetings. On-site time can still help during sensitive workshops, device testing, or rollout planning with local teams in Germany. What matters most is clear access, clear scope, and fast feedback.
Look for someone who can explain why a policy exists, how it will be tested, and how false positives will be reduced. A strong Data Loss Prevention freelancer should talk about data discovery, exceptions, rollout order, and user impact in concrete terms. Vague answers about tools alone are not enough.
Expect policy definitions, data classification guidance, test cases, exception rules, and a clear incident handling flow. In a mature Data Loss Prevention setup, the specialist should also leave documentation that your team can maintain. Good deliverables make the system easier to tune after the first rollout.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Data Loss Prevention in their recent projects is 118 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 946 € based on an 8-hour working day.
