Hello and welcome to my home on the cyberspace – snajsoft.com!

This website contains my thoughts on security and privacy related to people, technology and business. I am an Information Security Consultant by profession with Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC) certifications. I started my career in the late 90s as a website developer in South Asia where internet was in its infancy then. I moved to North America in 2000 as a Software Consultant and that’s when I registered this website (S N A J soft). My first stint in the US was on a Partner Relationship Management product and then moved on to work for JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Initially I started developing their global entitlements engine, but then moved on to develop security software based on Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), Cryptography and Digital Certificates. I designed and led the engineering effort to build Digital Signature software based on a patented technology called Portable Security Transaction Protocol. It’s part of the Multi-Factor Authentication used on the homepage of http://jpmorganaccess.com. The opportunity that I got with JPMorgan Chase helped me build my base on various technology platforms. My team, aka SWAT of the business division, was very good at production trouble shooting and handling incidents. I moved on to BMO Bank of Montreal to work as Information Security Officer for its data warehouse division, then as Security Architect with TELUS Telecommunications and Manulife Financial. Currently I work for one of the largest financial institutions in the world.

My professional engagement includes information security risk management, conduct IT audit, and architect new solutions. As a hobby, I play around with open source systems that help maintain my coding skills. Though I hold a degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, I struggle to remember how Ohm’s Law applies to electrical tranformers.

For some I am known as Shaheen Nasirudheen and for others as Shaheen Abdul Jabbar. Thanks to my producers for a long name ;)
