About Me
With over 25 years of experience in IT, initially building networks, servers, and file storage systems, I specialise in developing and executing comprehensive cybersecurity strategies that are closely aligned with an organization’s goals and objectives. My approach is designed to address the ever-evolving global threats by effectively managing threat exposure, all while ensuring the robust protection of the organization’s valuable information and critical systems.
One of my key strengths lies in conducting thorough assessments of threat exposure, where I meticulously identify and prioritise potential threats. I then work to establish highly effective mitigation strategies. This not only safeguards critical assets but also fuels the organisation’s growth by minimizing exposure to risks.
Drawing from my experience as an ISO Standards Implementer and ISO Lead Auditor, I excel in helping organizations achieve and maintain various certifications, including:
- ISO 27001 (Information Security Management System)
- ISO 27701 (Privacy Information Management Systems)
- ISO 22301 (Business Continuity Management System)
- ISO 20000-1 (IT Service Management System)
My commitment to international standards is founded on having a framework to enable Total Quality Management, ensuring excellent customer value for both “Internal” and “External” customers. A passion for precision and excellence has been ingrained in me since my days in the Hospitality industry.
I possess strong communication skills that enable me to effectively engage stakeholders at all levels, from executives and employees to customers. This ability is instrumental in conveying the critical importance of information security and in maintaining the trust of stakeholders.
I’m dedicated to continuous improvement in information security. I stay updated on emerging threats and the latest technologies, allowing me to adapt security measures, incident response plans, and vendor risk management practices to address evolving challenges.
