🔴 All posts are my observations of the general landscape meant to engage and educate. NOT problems I'm encountering. All views are my own and not that of my employer. I’m a techie, not an economist.

🔴 Please don't invite me to meals, drinks or round tables. ALL requests will be ignored.

I help CIOs in dynamic organisations reduce cyber risk, by developing pragmatic cybersecurity functions that align with the business needs and have a proven track record of increasing simplicity and promoting accountable visibility.
