Having ensured the security of highly sensitive information for high profile organizations by training and educating diverse personnel, in an executive-level information system security position, with more than 15 years of experience providing advanced training and leadership, practice, strategic planning, and generating superior results.
As a Security Awareness manager with one of the nation’s most influential organizations -- I devised a comprehensive new hire information security orientation program that has been adopted on a national scale and implemented annual security refresher and re-certification programs which increased information security and employee compliance. Led the security awareness and communications components of a newly created information security office and program. Successfully wrote and implemented project plan leading to the accomplishment of these goals. I have also created an eLearning strategy for information security awareness and training, along with the related curriculum. With the continued increase of threats to our networking environments, cybersecurity awareness, education, and training are critical to building and maintaining safe environments. Protecting information assets is everyone’s responsibility not just cybersecurity/IT specialists and those with privileged access. We live in an ever-growing digital and communications centric world. Being a part of the “Internet of Things” is a way of life, making understanding of risk and mitigation critical to providing effective security. Each one of us is a key contributor to ensuring the security of our digital economy and preventing damage from malicious or unintentional attacks.
