M. F. Siddiqui

Cybersecurity leader and technology founder with 17 years across IT, managed services, and security operations.

About

I have spent 17 years working across IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, and managed services, building teams, securing systems, and leading operations for organizations ranging from hospitals to ISPs.

Currently, I serve as SOC Lead at a US-based managed security services provider while simultaneously leading IT operations as Director of IT at Quaid-e-Azam International Hospital in Pakistan.

I am the founder of multiple technology companies in Pakistan, with ventures spanning enterprise cybersecurity, managed IT services, ISP infrastructure, and healthcare IT.

My current focus is on AI integration into security operations, cybersecurity consulting, and building resilient ISP and managed service infrastructure.
