ABOUT JOE
A Computer Scientist with expansive conceptual abilities in Information Security.
Joseph de Saram has significant expertise in the fields of Information Security Architecture, Intelligence Analysis and Digital Forensics. Areas of specialisation include the conceptualisation and design of wide area distributed systems, advanced neural networks, and strong cryptographics. Proven thought leadership, business development and technical mindset have evolved over thirty years.
Proficient, hardworking and focussed, Joseph is able to optimise and greatly enhance existing methodologies by extremely rapid assimilation of new material and modification of structured procedures. He achieves organisational competency through enforcing tough deadlines and rationalisation, and motivating co-workers to optimum efficiency.
Furthermore Joseph’s successful management of clandestine operations from design to delivery in terms of confidentiality, integrity and availability have led to significant improvements in the quality and performance of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) aspects.
Objective
To provide robust intellect to Aerospace & Defense contracting organisations (including under limited access authorizations) within extremely challenging environments, which demand neoteric solutions. Strong engineering acumen must be a prerequisite, with few limits to remuneration.

HUMAN RIGHTS
Joseph de Saram has always promoted and campaigned for the Fundamental Human Rights and freedoms that humans are entitled to. A ‘human rights activist’ typically brings out the various human rights violations in the public domain and campaigns to restore these rights, and since the late 1990s Joseph’s focus has been cryptographic projects involving:-
No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.
Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.
After the Torture and [Political] Psychiatric Fraud of 2015, Joseph truly understood first-hand, the significance of:-
Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.
Everyone has the right to an effective remedy by the competent national tribunals for acts violating the fundamental rights granted him by the constitution or by law.
No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile.

It does not include pain or suffering arising only from, inherent in or incidental to lawful sanctions
1. Each State Party shall ensure that all acts of torture are offences under its criminal law. The same shall apply to an attempt to commit torture and to an act by any person which constitutes complicity or participation in torture.

SFIA 7 INFOTECH EXPERIENCE
SFIA describes skills and competencies required by professionals in roles involved in information and communication technologies, digital transformation and software engineering. SFIA was formally launched in 2000 and its provenance can be traced back to the 1980s and a number of collaborative skills and competency projects. These led to the SFIA Framework and the formation of the SFIA Foundation which has become an international not-for-profit organisation that now brings together the global community to develop and maintain the SFIA Framework for the benefit of all.
SFIA has become the globally accepted common language for the skills and competencies related to information and communication technologies, digital transformation and software engineering.SFIA remains a collaboration – it has been regularly updated through a global open consultation process. People with real practical experience of developing and managing skills/competencies in corporate, public sector and educational environments from all around the world, contribute to ensuring SFIA remains relevant and true. It is built by industry and business for industry and business.
It is these components that set SFIA apart from other frameworks and has resulted in its adoption by governments, corporates and individuals in almost 200 countries. Its unique and ongoing success can also be attributed to:
