• Ensure stable and secure communication between different infrastructure components. 3. Firewall & Infrastructure Security
• Configure, manage, and maintain network firewalls and security policies.
• Implement firewall rules, ACLs, port restrictions, NAT policies, and network access controls.
• Secure server environments through system hardening, access restrictions, and security configurations.
• Configure VPNs, secure remote access, and encrypted communication channels.
• Implement network segmentation and appropriate isolation between critical systems.
• Identify unauthorized access, suspicious network traffic, open ports, and potential security vulnerabilities.
• Perform regular security checks, configuration reviews, and infrastructure vulnerability assessments.




• Ensure infrastructure follows organizational security policies and applicable security standards. 4. Server Commissioning & Project Deployment
• Independently handle end-to-end infrastructure setup and commissioning for new projects.
• Assess project infrastructure requirements and prepare server and networking configurations.
• Install and configure servers, networking devices, firewalls, switches, and supporting infrastructure.
