Lionel Mosley is an IT Consultant, Innovative Thought Leader, and Subject Matter Expert based in Houston, TX — serving organizations nationwide through 4TH AND BAILEY. With over two decades of experience across cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, Microsoft 365 environments, and enterprise IT governance, Lionel works with organizations from SMBs to large enterprises to build technology architectures that are secure, resilient, and aligned with the frameworks that matter — CISA SCuBA, NIST SP 800-53, MITRE ATT&CK, and CIS Benchmarks.
