Enrique G.
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 MITRE ATT&CK covers
MITRE ATT&CK is a knowledge base for describing how adversaries operate across enterprise, cloud and operational technology environments. It organizes tactics, techniques and procedures into a shared language for threat intelligence, detection engineering, purple teaming and incident response. Teams use it to connect observed behavior with defensive action rather than relying only on product names or isolated alerts.
Matrices and tactics
The ATT&CK matrices show the goals an adversary may pursue, from initial access and persistence to discovery, impact and exfiltration. Techniques describe the methods used to achieve those goals, while sub-techniques add operational detail. Strong specialists understand the difference between a behavior that is observed, a technique that is inferred and a detection that is actually supported by evidence.
Ecosystem and tooling
MITRE ATT&CK work often connects with SIEM, EDR, XDR, vulnerability management and threat intelligence systems. Specialists may use STIX and TAXII for structured exchange, Sigma for portable detection logic, and tools such as ATT&CK Navigator for coverage reviews.
- Map incidents and intelligence to tactics and techniques
- Review detection coverage and identify visibility gaps
- Create technique-informed test plans and reporting
Where companies use it
Companies apply ATT&CK to improve security operations, validate controls and explain risk to technical and executive audiences. It supports detection engineering, threat hunting, adversary emulation, security architecture reviews and incident lessons learned. It is useful in regulated industries, cloud-heavy environments and organizations coordinating security teams across Germany and international locations.
When freelance expertise helps
Freelance specialists are valuable when an internal team needs an independent coverage assessment, a new detection program or support during a major investigation. They can normalize inconsistent technique mappings, link telemetry to realistic attack paths and turn findings into prioritized engineering work. Remote collaboration works well for documentation, workshops and platform reviews; on-site sessions can help with exercises and stakeholder alignment.
What strong specialists bring
The best professionals combine ATT&CK knowledge with practical security operations experience. They can read logs, understand endpoint and identity controls, write clear detection requirements and challenge weak assumptions without overstating coverage. Look for evidence of traceable mappings, repeatable validation, useful documentation and recommendations that fit the organization’s actual technology, threat model and operating process.
Frequently asked questions
Before you brief your next project: the most common questions about MITRE ATT&CK.
Companies use MITRE ATT&CK to describe adversary behavior and connect it to detection, prevention and response activities. It supports threat hunting, security assessments, purple-team exercises, incident reviews and communication between security, technology and leadership teams.
ATT&CK provides a detailed, behavior-focused catalog of tactics, techniques and sub-techniques, while the Cyber Kill Chain presents a broader sequence of attack stages. Teams often use both: the Kill Chain frames an intrusion, and ATT&CK adds the operational detail needed to validate controls and detections.
A strong MITRE ATT&CK specialist usually understands SIEM and EDR telemetry, threat intelligence, incident response, detection engineering and security testing. Knowledge of Sigma, STIX, TAXII, cloud identity, scripting and ATT&CK Navigator can make the work more practical and easier to integrate.
The right level depends on the scope: a focused mapping review differs from building an enterprise detection program or supporting an active investigation. For complex work, choose a MITRE ATT&CK professional who can show how mappings were validated against telemetry, control design and realistic adversary behavior.
Much of MITRE ATT&CK work can be completed remotely through secure access, workshops and structured documentation. German companies should clarify data-handling requirements, access boundaries and whether German-language stakeholder sessions or occasional on-site collaboration are needed.
On-site sessions can help when ATT&CK findings must be aligned across security operations, infrastructure, identity and business teams. They are also useful for tabletop exercises, adversary emulation planning and workshops where sensitive operating details are difficult to share remotely.
Good ATT&CK mappings state the evidence, explain confidence and distinguish observed behavior from assumptions. Review whether each mapping leads to a clear defensive action, such as a tested detection, a control improvement, a hunting query or a documented visibility gap.
Before working with MITRE ATT&CK, clarify the target environment, data sources, threat scenarios, matrix scope and expected deliverables. Also confirm whether the project needs coverage measurement, detection content, intelligence analysis, exercise support or an actionable remediation plan.
