Imran Umar is a cyber leader spearheading Booz Allen’s zero trust initiatives. He provides technical solutions that enable our clients in the Department of Defense, federal civilian agencies, and the intelligence community to move toward a resilient zero trust architecture.
Using advanced concepts such as secure conditional access and zero trust edge, and AI-driven zero trust policies, Imran and his team of cybersecurity analysts apply unique tradecraft to determine an organization’s current zero trust maturity status. They then identify key gaps in architecture and develop tailored solutions to transition them towards a data-centric security model that enforces least privileged access. Along with zero trust, Imran works to advance the adoption and fusion of machine learning and AI to improve cyber resiliency at an enterprise scale.
Imran has a master’s in information and telecommunication systems, with a focus on cybersecurity, from Johns Hopkins University, and a bachelor’s from George Mason University.
