Tahir is a highly competent security professional whom I have always found to be knowledgeable, enthusiastic and helpful. He has a common-sense approach to security and was respected by colleagues and customers alike. He is diligent in his approach and was a pleasure to work with.

I was Tahir's reporting officer for over 3 years. I have never considered him as anything less than a very capable information security professional. Tahir is intelligent, honest and extremely calm under pressure. In short, I think Tahir's future employers can rely on him to do the right job, at the right time, in the right way with minimal fuss.

Tahir is a talented, and experienced individual. I have always found him highly professional, with good insights. He has developed some outstanding client relationships too.

I worked with Tahir for several years, it was a pleasure to watch him grow as he progressed from a well-qualified (MSc) but relatively inexperienced information security professional to a well-rounded and very competent Information Protection Coordinator with responsibility for maintaining compliance for a significant part of the business. Tahir is a self-starter; once a set of requirements have been established, it's a given that the necessary objectives will be achieved. Tahir certainly worked well as a team member, however my experience is that he is equally effective when his role requires him to work alone.
Tahir has experience in both the technical and procedural aspects of information security; he has extensive experience in developing compliance processes and setting up a framework to ensure that the processes are effective.

Tahir was a pleasure to work with, he has a great deal of knowledge in all matters relating to security and compliance. A great guy to have on your team!

I would recommend Tahir professionally, on the basis of my own experience as his manager. during this time he was in the role of Information Protection and Sarbanes Oxley coordinator. At all times I have found him to be a professional, focussed and strong deliverer. He is also very personable with good communications skills. I am certain Tahir will gain value for any company with whom he works. You may contact me for more information if you wish at Linkedin@IanRemnant.com.
