Noble Antwi - Cloud Security Engineer

Welcome to my digital space : I'm Noble Antwi

Here, I share my journey through cloud security, infrastructure architecture, and cybersecurity, with a strong focus on identity and access management and threat detection strategies. I'm glad you're here!

About Me

Hi, I'm Noble Antwi, a Cloud Security enthusiast and cybersecurity professional with over 4 years of hands-on experience in managing and securing IT infrastructures. I'm currently pursuing a Master's degree in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics at the Illinois Institute of Technology, where I'm deepening my expertise in areas like digital forensics, incident response, and cloud-native security.

My passion lies in cloud architecture, threat detection, identity and access management (IAM), and infrastructure protection. I've built a strong foundation in system administration and cloud engineering. Now, I'm focused on building secure, scalable systems across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Whether it's implementing zero trust models, hardening Linux environments, or exploring the inner workings of modern SIEM tools, I thrive in roles that demand critical thinking and proactive defense.

Outside of cybersecurity, I'm someone who values balance and creativity. Music keeps me grounded. I enjoy everything from Gospel and Lovers Rock to Afrobeat, Highlife, and HipLife. I'm also a proud supporter of Chelsea FC, even though I don't always have the time to watch every match.

At my core, I'm a learner and a builder. I believe that technology, when used with purpose, can drive real and lasting impact. I'm always open to collaborating on meaningful projects or connecting with others who are passionate about innovation and security.
