S Sultan Talib Munaver

25 years of infrastructure. Now pointed at AI.

I build the cloud, identity and security foundation that lets companies put AI into production safely, and I use AI to run IT operations faster. Scroll through the 25 years that built it — right up to what it powers now.

Scroll. Start at 2001, climb to what it powers now.

2001 – now · The foundation under it

Twenty-five years of making infrastructure hold.

Eleven chapters, eleven crumpled pages. Pick one up, unfold it, throw it back.

The foundation · 11 chapters Click a paper ball to unfold it. Drag to move. Fling to throw.

Now · AI-ready cloud

Cloud that is ready for AI before the pilot starts.

Most AI pilots stall on the unglamorous parts: landing zones, identity, networking, cost control and data access. I build that foundation on AWS, Azure and GCP with infrastructure as code, so model endpoints and data pipelines go live inside the guardrails your security team already trusts.

  • Landing zones
  • Private endpoints
  • Terraform
  • Cost guardrails
  • Multi-cloud

[DRAFT: replace with a real AI platform you built, for example "Stood up Azure OpenAI for N users behind private endpoints"]

Now · Secure AI

Give your people AI. Keep your data.

Assistants like Copilot and ChatGPT only get approved when security can answer one question: who can reach what? I put them behind the controls I have run for years: Entra ID, MFA, Conditional Access, DLP and audit logging. Adoption gets faster and the data stays yours.

  • Entra ID
  • Conditional Access
  • DLP
  • Sensitivity labels
  • Zero Trust

[DRAFT: replace with a real AI governance or rollout you led, and the number of users or tenants]

Now · AI-assisted operations

Operations that triage themselves, with a human in the loop.

Alerts, tickets and runbooks are the best place to start with AI. An agent reads the signals, proposes a fix and writes the change note, and an engineer approves it. I design these workflows around ITSM and ServiceNow with approval gates, so every action is logged and reversible.

  • ServiceNow
  • ITSM
  • Runbooks
  • Approval gates
  • Audit trail

[DRAFT: replace with a real automation you shipped and the time or cost it saved. The console on the right is an illustrative scenario, not a client case]

Work with me

What I take on.

  • AI-ready cloud

    Landing zones, private model endpoints and data pipelines on AWS, Azure or GCP, built as code so they are repeatable.

  • Secure AI adoption

    Copilot, ChatGPT and internal assistants behind Entra ID, Conditional Access, DLP and audit logging.

  • AI-assisted operations

    Alert triage, runbook automation and change notes with approval gates, wired into ITSM and ServiceNow.

  • Cloud migration & modernization

    On-prem to multi-cloud moves that raise resilience and cut provisioning time.

  • Identity, endpoint & Zero Trust

    Intune and MDM, Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365, MFA and Conditional Access tuned for usability.

  • Compliance, backup & DR

    DLP strategy, audit readiness, BCP and DR plans, and recovery runbooks that keep downtime short.

  1. STEP 1

    Assess

    Current state, risks and goals, written down in plain language.

  2. STEP 2

    Design

    Target architecture, security model and infrastructure as code.

  3. STEP 3

    Run
