As CISO, I led the global cyber security programme across an £18.3bn private equity portfolio at 3i PLC. I built an industry-leading cyber advisory practice at ITC Secure, and I'm the CEO and Co-Founder of a cyber security ratings provider (CyScore.co.uk).
What I offer
Fractional CISO
Organisations that are serious about security face the challenge of finding a lead who has the right skills, knowledge and experience.
As your fractional CISO, I'll enable your organisation to build and maintain an ISMS (information security management system).
Speaking/ Executive Cyber Security Briefings
Increase board-level engagement with briefings covering cyber security risks and analysed case studies. I believe strongly in the power of recounting real stories of attacks and analysing the elements of subsequent successes or failures.
Cyber Transformation Roadmap and Execution
My career has been characterised by building clear and pragmatic 12-18 month roadmaps, then leading the execution of ambitious cyber strategies, from supporting digital transformations to turn-key solutions, such as vulnerability management or simulated phishing campaigns.
