July 25, 2025 Cybersecurity Mentor rare Intellect
Today we are talking to a Cloud Security Architect. This is a mentor and friend of mine, Rob Rodriguez, one of the most talented IT professionals I have ever worked with. Some of the questions: What do your daily and weekly responsibilities look like as a Cloud Security Architect? Which cloud platforms do you focus on the most—AWS, Azure, or GCP—and why? For someone transitioning into cloud security, especially from a GRC or traditional IT background, where should we start? What areas or skills should we focus on first? Looking back, which certifications, degrees, or experiences had the biggest impact on your career advancement or opened the most doors? How do you view the current job market in cybersecurity and cloud security? It seems a bit tighter and more competitive—what’s your take? As a Marine veteran, what were the key lessons or values that shaped your career in tech and leadership? What advice would you give a veteran or someone considering military service? You’ve worked across both DoD and commercial enterprise—how different are the security priorities, and what lessons translate well between them? What’s your approach to staying current in such a rapidly evolving field like cloud and security? Are there resources you consistently rely on? At your level, how do you balance technical hands-on work with leadership and strategy? What advice would you give to someone who wants to grow into an architect role? With your experience at Skyhigh, ECS, and McAfee—what trends are you seeing in cloud security tooling (e.g., SSE, DLP, CASB)? What skills do you think will be critical in 2025 and beyond? 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
