Remote Pro Ai provides vetted Security Architects who set the reference architecture for zero-trust, cloud and application estates. They define enterprise security architecture with SABSA and TOGAF, threat-model critical systems with STRIDE, and align designs to NCA ECC, SAMA CSF, ISO 27001 and NIS2.
Your Security Architect defines enterprise security architecture aligned to SABSA / TOGAF, and threat-models critical systems and reviews solution designs. Typical stack: SABSA, TOGAF, Zero Trust, Azure / AWS security services and threat modelling (STRIDE).
Giga-projects, digital banks and national transformation programmes are designing large estates from scratch, and regulators expect security by design rather than retrofitted controls. Architects who can chair a design authority and threat-model before build are scarce, and their early decisions shape years of operating cost and risk.

A security reference architecture, approved patterns for zero trust, segmentation, data protection and key management, threat models for critical systems and reviews of every major solution design. They also chair the security design authority, so standards are applied consistently across vendors and squads.
SABSA and TOGAF for enterprise architecture, STRIDE for threat modelling and zero-trust reference models, applied across Azure and AWS security services. Many hold CISSP-ISSAP, SABSA SCF or TOGAF certification, verified with the issuer before any profile reaches you. Architects also produce reusable pattern libraries your squads can apply directly.
They map each architecture pattern to the relevant control objectives, so designs carry compliance by construction. When a solution is reviewed, the architect checks it against both the patterns and the mapped controls, producing evidence your GRC team reuses in audits.
Yes. Architects usually report to the CISO or chief architect, turning strategy into technical standards and reviewing designs on their behalf. Organisations without a full-time CISO often pair a Virtual CISO with a Security Architect to cover both leadership and design authority.
