Dear Mr. Hernandez,

I am excited to apply for the Cybersecurity Specialist position at Rapid Strategy, as advertised on Indeed. With five years of IT experience in the U.S. Army, I have a strong foundation in network administration, system security, and risk management, making me well-suited for this role. I am currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity Technology at the University of Maryland Global Campus and hold a CompTIA Security+ certification, with Network+ and CySA+ in progress.

Throughout my military career, I was responsible for maintaining secure network operations, troubleshooting complex IT issues, and ensuring compliance with military cybersecurity policies. I have experience with risk management frameworks (RMF), access control, and encryption protocols, which allowed me to assist in safeguarding sensitive systems. Additionally, I collaborated with teams to identify vulnerabilities and implement security measures, ensuring operational readiness in both garrison and field environments.

I am eager to bring my technical expertise, problem-solving skills, and security mindset to Rapid Strategy to strengthen its cybersecurity posture. My resume is attached for your review, and I welcome the opportunity to discuss how my skills align with your team’s needs. Please feel free to contact me at (803) 577-3917 or via email at juanolivo382@outlook.com.

Sincerely,

Juan Olivos
