Vice President I Global Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) I Strategist | Technologist | Board Advisor | Influencer | International Keynote Speaker | Author | PhD Researcher I Key Opinion Leader

I am a senior-level cybersecurity executive with over two decades worth of experience in the industry. I am passionate about people and their skills, risk management, and problem solving method. I have a genuine interest in others and am a fond believer of strong communication, active listening, and flexibility, all geared towards working together for a common goal.

As a proactive business strategist and advocate for the constructive deployment and implementation of digital technologies, I assemble talented, professional, and skills-based teams to carry an organization’s transformation. I help them locate, seize and embrace emerging business opportunities, all while providing oversight, direction, and guidance.

I believe in digital transformation as a means to fight the industrialization of cybercrime. It is lifelong objective and is the foundation of my professional pledge to those I work with.

My innovative research, investigative analytical methodologies, and managerial experiences have allowed me to develop and implement proactive and defensive cybersecurity strategies for a wide range of stakeholders. I operate at the cutting edge of technology, integration the issues of culture, risk, innovation, and even chaos to solve the problems I encountered. I would rather create the news instead of following trends, opinions, and the norm. This is how I have been able to train, examine, and work with hundreds of talented and devoted cybersecurity professionals around the globe.

It is my passion to share my knowledge through writing and public speaking, including multiple keynote addresses. I have both a curiosity and thirst to learn and discover anything I can about reducing cyber risks around the world.

Please do not be shy to reach out to me so we can begin to share our experiences and learn from each other.

Why Partnership Strategy, not Technology, drives Digital Transformation?

Known from the 17th century (Blaise Pascal invoked it in his famous wager, which is contained in his Pensées, published in 1670), the idea of expected value is that, when faced with a number of actions, each of which could give rise to more than one possible outcome with different probabilities, the rational procedure is to identify all possible outcomes, determine their values (positive or negative) and the probabilities that will result from each course of action, and multiply the two to give an "expected value", or the average expectation for an outcome; the action to be chosen should be the one that gives rise to the highest total expected value.

Far from being only a department and some IT equipment, cybersecurity is a societal topic. As most of the cyber-attacks involve user or customer to occur, it is surprising that nowadays security investment still goes mostly to IT domain.

Sometimes less is more...

December 09, 2017
The main cyber-exposure is elementary but often unmanaged... According to current notorious attacks and trends, the good old "back-to-the-basics" has never been as important as it is today. Secure today basics before investing in 'Star-Wars' security technology, is a key priority. Otherwise, it's a useful risk approach to cover more with a modest security budget.
